Noosa 2010

Dad and I arrived to some sweet waves at Noosa on the Saturday afternoon. It was around 4 ft and barreling. Certainly different from 2009 as it was breaking a lot faster. Dad and I stayed at the Backpackers for the first night which was pretty good. The next morning Dad and I had The Journal Family Challenge. We were against the Cunningham's and the Skips in the first heat. We came second and progressed. In the quarters we were against the Wilson's and the Bullpit's. We came third and didn't progress we still had a lot of fun though. On the Wednesday my Dad competed in the over 40's. He won his heat. In the quarters he got knocked out though. The conditions weren't too good for the quarters. I competed on the Friday. My heat was early in the morning. There were some nice waves coming through. I ended up winning my heat. My Semi was in the aftrernoon. The surf was a bit better with the higher tide. I won my semi too and I was very happy. Last year I came 2nd last in my heat.
Saturday was a good day watching the comp as the noserider and Old mal was on.
My final was on the Sunday. I was really nervouse before the final but I was good once I got under way. My second wave was a 6.75 and I was pretty happy with that. Unfortunatly I couldnt find a second wave and I finished up 2nd. Still stoked with the result though.
So Noosa has come and gone for another year. Can't wait till 2011.

NOOSA 2010.

So the time has now come and I'm heading off to Noosa Heads. I'm going for 8 days and ill be stoked to get into some warm water. I'm going in the Family Challenge and Under 16's. I hope the waves will be good. I hear Tudor and Knost will be down. Anyway i wont be posting 4 a while so cya.

So the Surfcoast comp was called off on Saturday due to lack of swell. But Dad and I thought we would go out at possos anyway to see what we could get. There were actually a few nice sets coming through and with few out we were catching plenty of waves. It was a good way to kick off the long weekend. But on Sunday I was really sick and didn't get a surf. Here's some photos that my dad took that day.
