Santa Cruz, California,home to surfers ear.

The winter season is upon us, which means the best surfing is yet to come. There are great waves, some of them epic, which has the surfers ready in 24 hours notice for the great contest at Mavericks. This surf contest is located up the coast from Santa Cruz, California in the Half Moon Bay area. There are many past and current champions from Santa Cruz. It is a great thick wave that has recently been brought to the publics attention. and the surf contest has recently gone mainstream.The waves are huge, i.e. 30+ feet in height. These guys who ride them have to be qualified and have real cajones to ride them. They also have in common the liklihood that they may get surfers ear. Others will likely suffer from surfers ear if they don't use hoods and ear plugs. These guys are generally the younger generation and are more aware of the need to protect themselves from this problem which is caused by cold water in the ears. Frequent dousings can cause infection and bony growths that can impair hearing. While the surf is up, the splendor and power of the waves can be beautiful and terrifying and heard from afar.
