As the players in big-wave surfing's granddaddy - call it Super Bowl Saturday - paddle out into the surf zone a half mile off Pillar Point, one of the sports world's least predictable events always makes for good theater.Here's a breakdown of what the day is all about:MAVERICKS SURF CONTEST '08When: 8 a.m. todayWhere: Mavericks, off Pillar Point Harbor near Half Moon BayWaves: Smooth 25- to 30-foot faces expectedPurse: $75,000, with $30,000 going to the winnerReigning champion: Grant BakerJudging crit

  With huge waves hitting Northern California the Mavericks surf competition window is set to open this Friday. The contest runs for a period of three to four months. During that time surfers are on-call. When conditions are right competitors are given 24 hours to get to Half Moon Bay for the start of the competition. Mavericks Surf Ventures will offer live, free Web cast of each heat and the opportunity to watch the event for free on the jumbo screens at AT&T Park. For those who want to view the event in person expect large crowds and minimal parking. Two designated parking lots will be established — one on the tarmac at the Half Moon Bay Airport and one in the upper parking lot at Pillar Point Harbor. $75,000 in prize money is up for grabs for the top six surfers.
