MOF Laguna Beach Had Big Waves and...

7 September 2010

Description

Though the ocean was freezing on Saturday, July 31st, Laguna Beach’s Surf Experience Day event got a lift from appearances by surprise guests Makuakai Rothman and BJ Penn. The pro-surfers inspired CF patients and their families, and got everyone stoked to get on their boards to catch their first wave. Pro-surfer Makuaki Rothman took pictures with CF patients and gave the kids some great surfing instruction.

Big wave tandem surfer, Bobby Friedman added a new element to the Mauli Ola Surf Experience Day by giving CF patients rides on his shoulders. “This was the first time we introduced tandem surfing at a Mauli Ola event and the kids loved it!” exclaimed MOF Surf Experience Day coordinator Bobby Serna.

All MOF volunteers and participants at Laguna Beach’s Surf Experience Day event enjoyed a great lunch after surfing, courtesy of Adolfo's Mexican Food and of course everyone wore their Flexfit MF hats.
