SBC Comp #1

12/11/2017

Sydney Bodyboard Club has started off the year strong at Whale Beach for Comp #1 of 2018 where there was a killer turnout and some tasty food. The competitors threw down in an effort to give them a chance come preso. Making most of the conditions was tough but the ones that ended on top are the ones to watch out for.

SBC Comp #4

23/07/2017

A pale winters sun, crisp westerly winds, a groomed 3-5ft swell and a herd of frothing bodyboarders converged at Mona Vale beach for the fourth SBC competition of 2017. A location that offers a consistent and punchy rip bowl, a novelty suck rock and a notorious ‘womp’ing shore break has undoubtedly earned itself the recognition as the bodyboarding epicentre of the northern beaches. All the club members were stoked to finally be competing at this iconic beach break once again. The morning was commenced with Ben Player imparting some of his wisdom about surfing well in bigger waves. These tips involved staying calm and not panicking by counting your breaths, and how longer, and more drawn out bottom turns are essential to surfing well in larger conditions. After the tide reached its peak for the morning, and begun to drain out at around 8:30 AM, the comp went underway with AAA’s first in the water. Tactical heats were surfed as the waits between waves were long. Some notable combos were thrown down by Moz and Ricky as they utilized the ripbowl to its full potential. But it was Miguel’s giant, rib shattering rolls that stole the attention of the crowd which had gathered to watch this bodyboarding spectacle. Moz ended up taking out AAA with some critical combos and some nice barrels. AA’s were in the water next with a straight, six-man final. The swell had slowly been dropping throughout the day but there were still many more ramps and barrels erupting on the Mona Vale sandbanks. Trent and Angus were throwing down some clean moves on critical sections but it was Will Morris that claimed first place, surfing a tactical heat and launching an arm- extended roll on a set wave. The Mens heat saw the same, slow yet clean conditions. A battle of the masters, as Nick C and Aaron M went wave for wave in a tight heat. Their experience became evident as competitors strung together some spin to roll combinations with clean lines and smooth flow. Tensions erupted in the water this heat with a hot-headed mona local blowing up, and swinging at competitors. Despite this, Aaron Mihelic managed to take out top spot with some clean and consistent riding, continuing this close rivalry with Nick Chandler. Drop Knee was up next. No surprises here as Antonio, in his element, began to use his wave limit in variety of ways. Spinners to slick exposed hack combos on the rights, or pulling into 5ft close out barrels on the lefts, throwing twice the number of buckets than any of the local standups. Will R, Jono M, and Joey all got several decent waves but could not keep up with this Portuguese shredder. As the day came to a close it is safe to say that all the boys got some some sick waves, and had a good time feasting on felicity’s wonderful cooking. With another Bunning’s BBQ on the horizon, and comp 5 in September things are looking good for SBC.
