Kick Start to the Contests

This weekend saw the first contest of the season, held at Godrevy, the Gordrevy Pro Junior hosted by the National Trust was a great way to start off the year. The surf conditions were not great with a strong offshore wind blowing them out making it a challenge for all competitors, however each and everyone of us fought to catch the right waves to gain us good scores.

It was a great weekend to catch up with everyone, we had great laughs, live music and a yummy hog roast lets hope the next contest was just as good as this one if not better.

Back Home to Face Reality

After coming back from Sri Lanka and having a month off of school and not having to think about exams, the last few days have become a slight shock to the system as reality has set back in. I'm not used to having to do revision instead of surfing perfect 4ft glassy waves everyday and being in such warm tropics, although over the easter holidays down in Cornwall we scored some super fun waves, also I have been working at O'Neill Surf Academy at Watergate Bay as a rookie surf coach gaining loads of experience and knowledge about teaching people to learn the sport I love.
