Winter, Whales and Wayne

Whilst our first meet for Winter started with sunshine, and whales breaching off freshwater beach, by the end we were all reminded that it was indeed winter with rain, wind and wobbly waves.

With low tide dumpers making the first heats of the day challenging, it was great to see some new faces come along and enjoy their first competition regardless.

Wayne from Line Up Surf in Dee Why bought along some of his coaching clients to experience their first GBF meet and to create new relationships with other women and girls who love to surf.  Not only did he help with judging but even jumped in the water and pushed some of our competitors on waves in the beginners longboard heat.  

 Finals heat results are:

Final Shortboard
1st - Lany Donaldson
2nd - Jacqueline Randall
3rd - Tara Smith

Final Longboard
1st - Alison Dalziel
2nd - Penny
3rd  - Dawn

Our next meet is on Sunday the 16th of July at 8am.  Stay tuned to facebook or instagram for any changes. And last but not least, a big shout out to Wayne  who is so supportive of GBF. If you are looking for lessons, boards, other gear or planning a surf trip, go check out Line Up Surf.
