The Triple Corona de Surfing, International Surf Contest is a series of three surf competitions held at quality surf spots in Northern Baja, Mexico. In 2009, the first year this international surf series was held, Mex Uno team rider Jose “Chuy” Velazquez was crowned the overall winner after a heated, series-long battle with Baja local Jaime Noia.

2010 Triple Corona Starts Off with a Bang

The first event of the 2010 Triple Corona de Surfing was held on March 27th at Playa San Miguel, and it couldn’t have started off any better. The conditions were great, shoulder-high waves throughout the day and warm weather made for a great day of competition. At the end of the day Mex Uno riders would represent in full force, with Gibran Garcia making the Men’s Open and Senior’s final, Jose Velazquez in the Men’s Open final, and Cynara Kidwell in the Women’s final.

Baja Surf Videos – Winter 2010

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

January and February of this year have been busy months for California surfers. The “El Niño” effect has brought consistent surf to the Southern California region; however, one Mex Uno rider has avoided the typical crowds at the San Diego breaks and has been scoring less crowded and bigger surf. That’s right, we’re talking about surfing Baja.

Now a San Miguel Local

While the violence and instability that has come to be associated with Baja, and the rest of Mexico for that matter, has kept many of us from crossing our southern border, it has not deterred one Mex Uno team rider. Jose, has been spending much of the 2010 winter in Baja, Mexico, surfing spots like San Miguel, and he’s been scoring!

Check out the videos below, if you haven’t seen Jose surf just look for the guy on a custom Mex Uno surfboard ripping.
