A New Way to Celebrate Mavericks

  • Biggest Wave
  • Ride of the Year
  • Performer of the Year

Winners are announced and celebrated at the Mavericks Awards, each May in Half Moon Bay.

The contest runs from October 1st 2022 – April 15th 2023. The basic rules are simple.
  • First, the surfer must make the wave all the way to the shoulder to be considered for an award.
  • Second, only prone paddle waves will be considered.
  • Third, waves must be ridden in the event window laid out above.

 

This year features over $25,000 in total prize purse with three award categories for both men and women.

One of the most famous waves on the planet

Mavericks is that rarest of things: not just a perfect wave and not just a giant wave but a perfect, giant wave.

The peak lies a little less than a half-mile off of Pillar Point and is marked by a clump of Stonehenge-like boulders lining the inside.

Massive swells looming out of the deep approach a shelf – made up of black, ungodly reef and boulders 20-feet beneath the surface – at breakneck speeds.

From there, Maverick’s becomes a 20-foot version of Stockton Avenue: a perfect, jacking AAA-frame breaking both ways, the right going long and the left a short-lived explosion of hell and spitfire.
