About Upper Trestles:
The Trestles surf area is easily one of the most exposed and consistent surf spots in Southern California, particularly in the summer months. Upper Trestles is a cobblestone and sand bottom point break with mostly rights and occasional lefts. Its a high-performance wave with multiple take-off spots – perfect for coaches to spread their team out to maximize wave opportunity.

Ocean City Wins High School Cup NJ Regional
After an extended 5-day waiting period to allow for the best possible surf and weather conditions, The NSL High School Cup was greeted with excellent 2-3 foot offshore peaks at 1st street in Ocean City, New Jersey.
Participating High Schools Manasquan, Southern Regional, Middle Township and three-time defending regional champion Ocean City battled in some of the closest Games in NSL history.
Ocean City High School beat Southern Regional High School by just 1.9 points in the closely fought first semi-final, despite an 8.7 score from Southern Regional’s Conner Willem in the bottom of the third period.
The second semi-final saw Middle Township High take down Manasquan High in low-scoring nail-bitter with Middle Township winning by just 0.45 points, one of the slimmest margins of victory in NSL history.
This set up a rematch of last year’s regional final between the Middle Township High Panthers and the defending regional champion Ocean City High Red Raiders. Middle Township won the coin toss and decided to surf in the bottom half of each period, sending Ocean City to the water first in the waist to chest high surf. Ocean City High alumni and assistant coach Rob Kelly had his team fired up, but the team was only able to drop a 12.7 total period score. (more…)
