Another golden day for those competing in the May club event, with nice warm weather and above average waves on offer as we head towards the back end of this shortened year.
Their was a number of excellent performances, with Dustin Atkinson (Opens Men) continuing his epic run on contest front , with another win in 2009. He had a slow start to the final but came home strong to pip young Ollie Ingham for the win. Dustin last ride, a 7.0 point score saw him jag a nice clean right peak with the natural-footer flaring his usual range of radical turns. Ollie was unlucky as in the end he only missed out on the win by 0.2 . Heath Irving has had a great year and he was again in the mix placing third with Billy Langley 4th and Shaun Irving 4th.

The 25th Jesus Pro Am at Manly had great waves , good weather and even better it came down to two locals who would fight it out for victory . Yes the Open Men’s Division was outstanding and it came down to QBC verse NSB Nick Riley Vs Dustin Atkinson.
With the Men’s final replicating a local inter-club heat, Queenscliff Boardriders Club member Riley, faced the in-form Atkinson from the North Steyne Boardriders Club.
In excellent 1m surf at Queenscliff Beach, both Riley and Atkinson displayed great early round form, with each progressing undefeated to the man-on-man 20-minute final.

In what was a first for NSB, last Saturdays add on club round saw members compete in the tough ‘’Surf Tag’’ format and the overall feedback was positive with everyone having a great day out.
Yes there was teething problems and some teams where more stacked than others but the whole idea was for one to bring everyone together in a fun environment and build club spirit Also we wanted to give everyone the opportunity to surf what is regarded as the toughest format in surfing.
For the club to move forward it’s always good to keep the grommets and older on track with practice part of what it takes to be successful.
Its sounds easy , three waves in 10 minutes but the reality is , it’s tough trying to pick a wave that won’t shut down as most heats are separated by only a couple of points
Onto to the day , there was plenty of personal in the water as one of the bigger more cleaner swell arrived in time for the contest with waves reaching the 4 feet range on offer.

The sun was out, the music was pumping through the PA system and Levett family was doing their thing on the BBQ and what’s more we have one of the best turn outs in years for the March 2009 club contest at Nth Steyne.
For the 1st time in a long time we had quarters in the 18,s boys, Opens and B grade as well as big heat numbers in the grommets which is encouraging for the future of the club.
The waves were 1-2 feet but the left peak offered up enough wave face to rip into and that was the case during the morning session with big scores laid down by a number of surfers who were looking to make their way into their division finals.

The Honolulu grill was the venue the NSB Presentation night and it was great to see a packed house there to celebrate another awesome year at club level and to crown our 2008 club champions. The weather was bearable for the 1st time in days and it was our two WCT Surfers with Dayyan Neve and Kai Otton who took charge of the floor and we announced each division top four surfers.
It must be said the grommets were out in force and they really enjoyed the comedy that both the boys provided. A night like this takes a lot of effort from everyone and I would like to personally thank all those companies that donated, such epic prizes for everyone.
