For a few decades now local surfers have looked forward to the annual Channel Islands Surfboards Rincon Classic. Some are excited to compete in it, others to catch a glimpse of the 805’s best surfers battling it out at the Queen of the Coast. With a six-week waiting period, event organizers “Surf Happens” were able to hold out this year for the best conditions. Held in perfect, pumping conditions at the Cove section, Conner Coffin walked away with the pro division win and celebrated the memory of Chris Brown by donating his winnings to “Brownie’s” daughter.
