HUNTINGTON BEACH BOARDRIDERS CLUB
The future is local
Brothers and sisters across generations, united by the ocean and a love for the ride. We surf together, compete together, and grow together — fueled by local pride, friendly competition, and a passion for positive movement. Always paying it forward to those following in our wake.
THE HUNTINGTON BEACH BOARD RIDERS
The Huntington Beach Boardriders Club was born from a shared love of the ocean. Founded by lifelong best friends Casey Wheat, Chris Moreno, and Ziggy Williams, what began as a small crew of 3 clubs competing together has grown into a global movement — now spanning 51 clubs around the world. Our club is a thriving community of 200 members, drawn from every walk of life in our local neighborhood. We celebrate teamwork through our unique tag-team format, welcoming surfers of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels. Together, we chase friendly competition and pursue a shared mission: to bring home the WCBR Wheat Cup and claim the USBR Championship at Lower Trestles.
The gathering of west coast tribes
2026 USBR / WCBR
The 2026 season brings an exciting new format — each event now spans two full days, with the PREMIERE LEAGUE competing on Saturdays and the PRIME LEAGUE taking on Sundays. This expanded schedule brings together 10 clubs across the West Coast for some of the most competitive surfing of the year.
For Stop #1, Huntington Beach Boardriders took on Santa Cruz, South Bay, Central Coast, and Santa Barbara Board Riders at the Huntington Beach Pier. The waves were pumping and the competition was fierce — HB brought the energy, put on some of the best surfing of the day, claimed the win, and set a new record for highest points ever earned!
March 14, 2026 STOP #2
Premier Leagues: Santa Cruz, HB, South Bay, Central Coast & Santa Barbara Board Riders Clubs
Huntington Beach Boardriders traveled to Santa Cruz for Stop #2 of the United States/WCBR 2026 contest. We couldn't be more proud of the crew that showed up and competed against some of the best surfers in the Premiere League. Our team surfed with heart and put on an incredible performance. HB came in 2nd with 196.61 pts — Santa Cruz took the top spot with 211.08 pts, and South Bay rounded out the podium with 160.50 pts. A hard-fought result against elite competition.
Next stop: Morro Bay in April. The hunt continues.

They represented our club, our community, and the spirit of Huntington Beach on the world stage. A 5th place finish against the best in the world is something to be incredibly proud of.
