VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. –The 52nd Annual Coastal Edge East Coast Surfing Championships (CE-ECSC) presented by Vans, will be held August 17-24, 2014 at the Virginia Beach, Va., oceanfront. At the heart of the Coastal Edge ECSC beach sports festival is the world’s second-oldest continuously-run surfing contest. More than 200 professional surfers come to the East Coast’s most fabled contest to compete for their share of a $125,000 total pro cash purse and ASP 4-Star points; many of the top-ranked women’s and men’s amateur surfers annually make the pilgrimage for circuit points or simply for the love of the sport. But no matter their ages – from under 10 super groms to menehunes to the over-70 grand legends –they surf for a coveted spot in CE-ECSC history. With nearly 1,000 entries, CE-ECSC has the most surfers competing in any event in the world. Distinctly Beach Sports and Spectator Activities Over the past 52 years, the Coastal Edge ECSC has evolved around the East Coast’s classic surfing contest and has grown into a unique weeklong celebration of beach sports, sights, sounds and culture. Recognized for years as one of the top events in the southeastern US, the CE-ECSC is truly the great American beach festival. Hundreds of competitors take part in 10 unique beach-oriented sports, including:
