Finally, we have some swell on a weekend, so our 14th Annual Clam Jam will run this Saturday, October 24th!  We may be dealing with some walled out waves, but the size and weather should make for an epic day at 68th Street in Brant Beach.  Surfers should report to the beach no later then 7am.  Food will be provided by the Tide Table Group and the K2 bar will be open.  Let's have a day for the LBI Region surf community! On the Stage: 11am-1pm The Fourth Son / 1pm-3pm The Danksters Photos of the 13th Annual (2019) Jetty... Read More...

We're not running out of time, this is just the way that the wait for Clam Jam-worthy surf on a weekend goes!  The Jam will not take place on 10/17 or 10/18 this weekend.  We still have a couple of weekends left in OCT, but note that if it does not go down this month, then we can exercise the option to have it on any day of the week (in November)...

We have the longest window in the history of the Clam Jam this year and were already faced with a very tough call for this weekend - the Jam is postponed and will not run on Saturday 9/12 or Sunday 9/13.  There will be some energy out there this weekend, so go grab some waves!  We're banking on better conditions with more favorable winds, hopefully in September, as storms line up to march our way.

The bracket has been solidified for the 14th Annual Jetty Clam Jam!  Solidified, but not finalized as we all know that there will be some alternate surfers to swap in when conflicts arise.  If you missed registration and are interested in being an alternate, then please send us an email (Anna@jettylife.com).  We're pumped to start watching the swell forecasts - please stay tuned into this Blog, our social media channels and the Clam Jam Website for the call as each weekend approaches!   Read More...

Bill Machotka & Randy Budd, our absolute rock star operators of the Clam & Coquina Jams, are hanging up their mics this year!  Make no doubt about it, we're sad, but these two professionals have put in more then their fair share of volunteer hours planning, organizing, setting up, running and breaking down our surf events.  We will forever be indebted to them for their service and contribution toward growing our community events!  As we approach our 12th Annual Coquina Jam, we'd love for some ladies to step up and volunteer!  If interested, please fill out the Coquina Jam Volunteer...

Wow, we can't believe that we've been running our annual Clam Jam surf contest for 13 years now!  This year, we're opening up another September weekend (2 total) with 4 potential early Fall days to run the event.  We're also dedicating this one to our main man Pat Harrington who is battling through Hodgkin's Lymphoma and some nasty chemo treatments that are going to keep him out of the water for a while.  Registration is now open, and we're seeking sponsorships as well.  Check out all of the details at JettyClamJam.com! The first (96) surfers to register will have their... Read More...

Above: New names on the trophy by Dan Przygocki After a Nor'easter blew through the coast, the 12th Annual Jetty Clam Jam finally went down on Sunday, October 28th!  The Jam was held at 68th Street in Brant Beach for the first time and naysayers were put to shame by 4-6ft+ hollow waves that pumped from dawn to dusk.  An epic final pitted Steve Carpitella & Josh Law against Jamie Whitesell & Jetty Ambassador Pete Machotka.  J-law instantly scratched through a front side barrel and landed a monstrous floater to open up the heat.  Machotka countered with a big back...

We're always stoked when Fall is in the air, because it means that the window for our Jetty Clam Jam is fast approaching!  This year we'll surf and celebrate at Hudson Avenue in Harvey Cedars.  We've also introduced a new website which includes online registration, sponsorship opportunities, and the storied history of our event.  Join us on the beach for cold clams, community, and a day that we look forward to year in and year out!
