And what happens on a raceboard when heading for the finish, and you get on too big a wave... 
He came into shore, got a fresh paddle & finished the race... too cool.

Looked like Fun!

1st - Reece Muir
2nd - cam McKay
3rd - mike galvin
4th - Brett mason
5th - Rob porzig
Unfortunately Reece was on a 14ft board so wasn't eligible for prizes or selection for the state team which will be announced in coming days.
Another well run event by SWA in excellent conditions. Big congratulations also to the female competitors who finished with very respectable times.

who won the surfing side of the equation? I checked on the surfing australia website and got this
HIF WA LONGBOARD TITLES RND # 3 - MANDURAH
Results are not available for this event.

Open results.
1. Jake Jakovich
2.Rick Jackovich
3. Crawford Olney
4. Mike Galvin
Jake (pic. 1) and Rick (pic.) 2 are 1st and 2nd respectively in our SUP State Titles. They have been champion short boarders in the past, they shape their own boards (7'4"s generally) and have indicated they will be going to the national titles in August. Those of us who witnessed their surfing over the 3 rounds of state titles ( and in free surfing) are more than quietly confident they are going to make a big impression at the nationals and hopefully beyond.

Thanks for that Fergus. Good to see the young one taking one off the elder bro. Yep they both rip and should do some damage at the Nationals. Lets hope there is some decent waves for them to show their true worth.

Would this be a good time to mention that the usual haunts down here were pretty big and empty?

I got to see some of the longboarders first hand in the lineup while they were freesurfing in between those heats.
The majority of Longboarders that reside at SH are a bit older and just happy cruising down the line, soo seeing these younger guys and girls tear up was awesome to watch. They were well mannered and shared the waves too!
