Langland Boardriders
15th October 2002It’s that time of year again folks, when the Langland Boardriders host the annual Surfers Against Sewage Toxic Trophy surfing competition 2002. Last year the surf contest was cancelled due to lack of swell although the evening fundraiser event raised over 400 pounds for SAS who work very hard to keep our oceans and it’s surrounding environments clean.
The event is scheduled to take place on the 16th & 17th of November at Langland bay S. Wales, no phone in and heats start 9.00 o’clock sharp. The categories are open mens, open ladies, under 18 and under 16. Beach entries will only be accepted if there are spaces available. This contest is open to everyone worldwide but will also be a Welsh ranking event to help with future team selections. There will be loads of prizes for the finalists and entry forms will be available from local surf shops, or on the WSF website (www.welshsurfingfederation.co.uk).
As you know last years surf contest was cancelled, so fingers crossed for swell this time. We did however have a night do….I’m sure many of you may remember, St Agnes band Real YT came up from Cornwall and gave us a rocking not to be forgotten. Well I’m pleased to say that we were able to drag them away from their grueling schedule to come up and support SAS again. This time the night do will take place at a different venue, it will be at the Mumbles motorboat & fishing club on the evening of Saturday the 16th Nov from around 8.00 o’clock. A bargain entry fee of only 3.00 quid and all funds go to SAS, this will enable you to enjoy great prizes from the raffle, latest surf films, a DJ clash from the Aggy Allstars which is a set of Phat tunes from Reggae to Hip Hop, Punk Rock and pure poetry in motion before Real YT take to the stage to blow you away!!
So if your at a loose end on that weekend don’t dismay, come to Langland Bay S. Wales and witness or take part in some of the finest surfing in the U.K. If your just looking for something different to do on Saturday night, come to Mumbles and show your support for SAS, this evening won’t let you down. Although do come early to avoid disappointment, last year’s venue was a full house.
