Sessions West Coast Deli x NSSA: Supporting the Next Generation of Surf Legends
This weekend, October 11th and 12th, the National Scholastic Surfing Association (NSSA) contest returns to Huntington Beach Pier—right across the street from Sessions West Coast Deli. The waves will be firing, and so will the energy, as some of the best young surfers in the nation compete for championship glory.
A Legacy of Surf and Support
NSSA holds a special place in our hearts here at Sessions. For years, the association has nurtured the next generation of surfers—kids chasing dreams, dawn patrols, and national titles. We’re proud to be part of that journey, cheering on our Sessions Ambassadors who have grown up through NSSA’s ranks and carved their names into surf history.
Meet Our Champions
From national titles to unforgettable local wins, our crew continues to make us proud:
Finn Castle — multiple-time national champion, now back to reclaim his title this weekend after recently taking home a Rip Curl Grom Search national win on the East Coast.
Makai Castle — another powerhouse in the lineup, known for his consistency and fearless surfing.
Sara Freyre and Gavin Lusby — both long-time NSSA competitors with shelves full of hardware and hearts full of stoke.
Catch the Action (and a Bite!)
If you’re heading down to the pier to watch the competition, make sure to stop by Sessions Huntington Beach—just steps away from the sand. Grab a breakfast burrito, one of our signature sandwiches, or a post-surf acai bowl and join us in supporting the NSSA family.
We’ll be rooting for Finn Castle as he paddles out to defend his national title, representing not only the Sessions crew but the spirit of Huntington Beach surf culture.
Good luck to all competitors this weekend — the future of surfing is looking strong!
