Princess Racers: Socialites Battle

So can socialites surf? The short answer is yes—at least one of them can.

Last week was the second annual Princess Race, which features 30 social ladies, matched up in teams of two, competing in events ranging from waterskiing, tubing and surfing to kayaking, jet skiing and golfing. These, of course, are ladies you're far more likely to find on the red carpet than on the water, but offer up a Cartier watch as the grand prize and the ladies were ready to overlook a few clouds and get wet.

The first lesson to take note of is never get between a socialite and her Cartier. The ladies were not messing around and there was serious strategizing going on. Fabiola Beracasa said that she and her partner, Candace Levy, had been training for months (she was kidding we think, but the results don't lie).

At the end of the day though, it was all in good fun and for a good cause. Innocence in Danger, a group that works with abused children was the benefactor, the ladies got off the red carpet and had some fun in the water and the winners, Fabiola Beracasa and Candace Levy walked away with some very nice watches (thanks in no small part to Candace Levy actually being able to surf and Fabiola Beracasa showing up with her own wakeboard).
