The 2023 California Classic was a grassroots bodyboard contest held at Salt Creek, California, U.S.A., on September 9th.

The first annual 2023 California Classic was a huge success, bringing the local bodyboard community all together for a fun day and friendly competition to help push and grow the sport.

The day was incredible with everybody ripping, the sun was out, swell was filling in, Mike Stewart made an appearance, Tanner McDaniel entered his first ever Dropknee contest, and local grom Lincoln Presley beat all the top CA riders on the Men’s division.
