Artwork below by Victorian artist Steve Parker , who donated his time and skill for one of the prizes at the 2011 World Titles. Steve also did a didgeridoo as first prize in the men's Opens , which was won by Albert Munoz , the artwork on that was incredible , with hand prints from all the local kids incorporated in with his own work, sorry that I dont have a picture of it to show.

My youngest son Curtis was also inspired to make me a walking stick for my 51st birthday, with Stuart giving him a few pointers on making the stick from scratch to applying  the artwork with pens

Happy Birthday Matee!

We had a great slide for his birthday, the surf wasn’t the greatest but with just us SCUMM and Paul’s nephew Jeremiah joining in on the fun, the mate-ship made up for the wave quality…even a pod of Dolphins came in to say Happy Birthday!

Another Mat Rider in the Gong

Meet Dave!

Having a solo session just Nth of the Gong and out paddled this guy called Dave. He had never been in the water with another person on a mat or seen another mat in his life. He had a 4th Gear Flyer Classic he got as a present. Got the air down in his mat and he was having more fun. He was on waves going super low and fast.
