What a busy couple of months!. Work's going mental, surf comps most weekends, heaps of long evening surfs and a fair bit od cider!
A month or so ago, i went to go for a leisurely surf at high tide saunton, only to be hounded by Mr Tim Tanton (P4R) to enter the Saunton to Croyde Paddle Race. I tried every excuse under the sun not to compete, but old geez didn't give up and even lent me his 9'10 to paddle (cheers mate). It was a great paddle, all for a good cause, with the sun out and the board I was on flew. I managed to win the paddle and bagged £25 voucher for The Thatch and a holiday in France. A good morning all round!

Back the days events and the first ever race held by the P4R Team was won by the talented young, local longboarder, Greg Norman. Greg needed a little persuasion to enter as he had just come out the water from surfing and was without a big longboard fit for racing! It was a 9' 10” log from P4R Founder, Tim Tanton, that swayed his decision, and he never looked back as he blitzed the opposition to win a weeks holiday in France, courtesy of Errant Surf. Enjoy your holiday Greg – many congratulations. Chris Barraclough and Chris Dyer came in 2nd and 3rd respectively, followed by Welsh entry Tim Aylett in 4th.
