Catching Waves on the Jersey Shore!

6 Adaptive Athletes. 2 Days. Endless Jersey Shore Stoke!

High Fives Foundation headed east for two incredible days of adaptive surfing in Spring Lake, New Jersey! On October 17–18, six adaptive athletes hit the waves alongside our friends at Operation Beachhead, proving that the joy of surfing knows no limits.

With the support of an amazing crew of volunteers, athletes, and friends, the Jersey Shore delivered plenty of waves, smiles, and unforgettable moments. From navigating the surf to celebrating every ride, the weekend was all about building confidence, creating connections, and sharing the stoke.

High Fives athlete Nick Fairall reflected on the experience:

“With the help of Operation Beachhead, we were able to navigate the waves off the Jersey shore and surf some crazy waves with an amazing group of athletes, supporters, and friends!”

A huge HIGH FIVE to Operation Beachhead and everyone who helped make this East Coast surf adventure possible. Together, we’re continuing to create opportunities for adaptive athletes to experience the freedom of the ocean!
