Bodyboarder Brendon hands over to Wesley
The official wave riding season has come to an end for the year.
BLOW Out Bodyboarding Club held its fifth and final event for the year last Sunday. This was followed by the prize-giving and annual general meeting.
It turned out to be an amazing day, with perfect four to six foot surf at St Mike’s with a very difficult paddle. Many riders had to try more than once to get out.
Wesley Coetzee has taken over as the chairman from Brendon van Rooyen, who felt it was time to hand over the baton to the younger generation. Wesley will be helped by new vice-chairman Luciano Ovidi.
Sponsors were Hurrican Surf, Rip Curl, Maniac Bodyboarding Products, Monster energy drink and Mxndog surfwear.
