Boardriders have swell day
Umina Boardriders saw some of the best waves of the past two years as the club took to Umina Beach for its monthly contest on September 19.
Club secretary Ms Verity Roser said it was great to finally have some good waves at Umina on the day of the club's monthly meeting.
"Finally we had swell on the actual Umina Boardriders day," Ms Roser said.
"With a one to two metre swell running, the waves were the best we've had in a couple of years and the standard of surfing was outstanding from all members.
"There were a few casualties with the most spectacular being Wicksy's brand new board being broken into three pieces."
Results for the day saw Col Wright win the Masters while Greg Power came in second and Brian Cook in third spot.
In the Opens division, Mark Wrice came out on top while second place went to Duane Artis, Jason Ralph in third and Col Wright in fourth.
B Grade saw Zach Makepeace take out first place, second to Jye Jewiss, third for Billy Davis and fourth to Maddie Cook.
The club will next meet on October 17.
