Brody is currently preparing for a new year of competitive surfing. He will participate in the first round of Ethekwini Surfriders Association’s trials on Sunday, 18 March. Trial dates thereafter are on 6 May, 22 July and 19 August. Those interested can get more information by following Ethekwini Surfriders Association on Facebook or visit www.ethekwinisurfing.co.za.
Each surfer’s top three trial results will determine if they qualify to represent the Ethekwini Surfriders Association in the South African championships, which take place in October. Brody did his home town proud at last year’s KZN Champs, where he came second in his age group, and at South African Champs, where he made it to round three. He is wished well for the year ahead.
