Fun For All The Family

Here’s our last look back at last year’s entries as we prepare for tomorrow’s Fancy Dress Swellboard Shootout to celebrate International Surfing Day. We say a fond “G’Day” to the Tarplee family over in Oz . Wish you were here to share this day with us.This Simpson’s outfit was your most recent rig – and the Great White Sharks of a previous year was another splendid effort! Who will sport the best fancy dress this time?

A brief shout-out to all participants in this morning’s Kids Club – Well done all! There was some stylish surfing on show, and the Team Swellboard contest among the Outbackers was a pretty gritty affair! Nick has some pictures to view here– get over there to see if he caught your best wave today.

See you at the beach tomorow -10am sharp for all competitors!

Will we see this team again in 2014?

St. Ives Surf School celebrates International Surfing Day this weekend in it’s own inimicable fashion with the 2014 Swellboard Shootout at Porthmeor Beach on Sunday. This Fancy dress extravaganza was a tremendous success last year, gathering worldwide attention for the Rhythm video edit of the event – and setting the bar pretty high for this years’ teams.

The weather outlook is good, and competitive swellboard action is possible in even the smallest surf conditions, so pack a picnic, slap on the Factor 50 and bring the family down to the beach to catch the action.

Saddle up and mosey on down!

Look out for more  pictures of last year’s teams here in the coming days as we lead up to the big day!
