JH Artwork

How sick is this art work by my good friend Johnny Hentley. The lad's got heaps of talent and he painted this little beauty for my new house. Thanks fella.

Trophies.........

This weekend saw the British Longboard Club Championships return to Saunton. Teams from as far away as Scarborough turned up to compete for the title, each team fielded there strongest 6 surfers and individual heat scores were combined to give a team total. With fun 3ft cleanish waves on offer, the Hotdoggers 'A' team (Myself, Ben Haworth, Ashley Braunton, Angus Murray, Greg Robinson and Phil Hill) won the event and kept the trophy at the club!

That evening was the end of summer party, a cracking mix of beer, carvery, music, raffle videos and presentations. Everyone had a great time and I was pleased to hear I had finished 4th overall for the season against some very talented surfers. The night got even better when in the raffle I won a free VW car of my choice for a weekend.................stoked.

Local Lowdown

Local surf community Eyeball HQ have recently started a new section on their site, "The Local Lowdown". This blog style format keeps everyone updated with the news, events and shenanigans from each of the North Devon Beaches.

I've been tasked with the Saunton updates and with 2 of our lads Ben Haworth and Zak Lawton recently making the cut for the World Tour event in Italy, there has been plenty to write about!
