A cold wet June morning didn’t keep people away for our 3 event of 2016. When the sun peaked its head over the horizon there were some fun 3-4ft waves and we staked claim to the largest comp area ever seen for a boardriders comp on the beach. We have 2 banks from the Beachies office to Northend surf club.
People quickly forgot about the weather when the BBQ got cranked and Karo and the boys started churning thru out the bacon and egg rolls. Just as the comp got underway the rain moved off and there was little to no wind. Epic conditions really and everyone must have been watching the cams because the crowd in the water went from 20-40 to 300 in 20 min. There was some great surfing in the early heats by the usual suspects. Joey, max in the Opens, Jason O, Tye, Gully and Zac Michael in Juniors, Koda, Kyle O, Josh Keary in the Cadets all had great Round 1 heats score to match their performance. As the day progressed the wind came up from the South but it was still light and didn’t affect things too much. The finals were epic.
