2nd competition run and won
Comp #2 Sunday 11th March 2018
The call was to run the comp on Sunday, and what a call – the waves were 3-5’ pumping with no wind all comp. Left and rights were aplenty with the tide making little difference to the quality. As far as comps go you really couldn’t get a better combination of waves and conditions.
We had a great roll up with some old members, apparently not just beer talk at the 40th reunion, showing up all guns blazing. We ran a few masters heats to clear the water as there was some “creep” into the comp area from the blow ins. We then ran the opens, juniors and Micros followed by the semis and finals.
There was so much great surfing going on its hard to pick the outstanding surfers. A few mentions include Shane and Chris still ripping and back to reclaim a tittle, Cruz doing his thing ripping the Juniors along with Jarred K, Garp and Marzy shredding and getting vertical on critical sections, Woody doing his usual power surfing whilst Dangas was milking the best out of them, and in my mind Jared Edwards going to town like a Boss.

Big thanks to the guys and Girls helping out on the day, Hans with the gear, Woody and Dangas set up, Summer and Co Managing the BBQ, Anthony with the Clubbie help, and everyone judging.
Also thanks to the sponsors that support the club:
Island Aclassic, Carve, DP Surfboards, Oztrail, Vissla, SIC Surf, STC (Surf Trading Company), Mercy Huts, Phantom Engineering, Gecko Projects.
See Garie Boardriders web page for 40th run down what a great night, the question of the night is will “O Cal” come good with the Petsy pledge of $20k for 1st place in opens for the year! Rumour has it that Island Aclassic is closing down, keep an eye out for some bargains. Also rumoured is the closing of the Engadine pub for redevelopment.
Next Comp #3 is the 24th March, as usual the best day of the weekend for surfing will be selected.
Keep an eye on the Facebook page for updates, usually Thursday afternoon the week before the scheduled comp details will be posted.

See you all there.
