We had a great weekend. Sunny weather, a lovely left and right directly across the road from the SUP Vic house that was fun for the more experienced surfers, but yet also really good for those who were pretty new to the surf. I'm sure those who came down would agree with me that it was a great weekend.

Here are a few random photos.

We also discovered the new Starboard prototype battle of the paddle model....in secret testing down at Inverloch.

DJ has scooped some preview pics, so I'll let him post them - especially for Jonathon and PT Woody to drool over!

Great pics Rosscoe.

First time in the surf on a Sup for me on Saturday. Normally I just paddle on flat water down at the Inlet. Arrived a bit late on the Saturday, around 10:30am but went out for a few hours and really enjoyed it. Started to get the hang of it towards the end and actually caught a few waves. Perfect size and quality first a first time & great to see so many people out. Had a great time and keen to get out in the surf more often from here on...

Last batch for tonight. Others may have some photos to post as well, in due course.

Some great photos ion there guy's thanks for the post.

Well done to all who contributed and participated. Quite fitting that Sup Vic hosted the first and last events for this season.
Great uncrowded waves and weather. Can't wait until next year's event.

Thanks everyone for coming down!
We couldn't have possibly got any better conditions, like Max Wells said, he hadn't seen it like that in 30 years.

Crongrats to Leon who was voted best performer over the weekend. He had his little Laguna Bay ripping!

Thanks to SUP Vic and the sponsors for setting up a fantastic weekend!

Reasons to be stoked:
1.Conditions were fantastic
2. I didn't manage to ding my board - always a bonus.
3. I learnt heaps from watching the experts ripping the swell - great to see.

Thanks again,

AB

It would have been good to have you there Rodriguez....I'm sure we can put on even bigger and better events next season. Watch this space.

Classic pic of DJ doing what he does best, taking pics while on the SUP

Thanks SUP Vic for allowing me to demo a couple of boards.

Now I just need to decide which one to buy!

Thanks for coming down Joel, it was good to see you get amongst it!
I hope it help in your decision making process.

Aha! DJ has had his wettie surgically implanted to his epidermis and as such, doesn't require a second wettie.

Actually, on the Sunday, the big fella did sport the rubber suit.

This event just happened to have all of the right ingredients and to be in the channel, paddling back out to the the break and cheering on a newbie pulling into one of their first ever waves, their face a picture of concentration and nailing the ride was what made it soooo much fun for me!

No aggro, no egos, just good old fashioned surf stoke.

Only in Vicco! [ or Tassie perhaps]
