still to be tallied. The South Island surfing circuit prize giving is coming up on October 8. The South Island surfing circuit is a series of five events around the South Island featuring more than nine divisions and age groups. Several local surfers performed well last summer with Neil Robb (Sumner) winning both masters and grand masters, Alethea Lock (Sumner) winning both open and junior women and Kristi Zarfieh (Sumner) runner-up in both. Hayden Brain (New Brighton) was second in the senior circuit with Aaron Lock (Sumner) third. Dan Warren (New Brighton) took out the longboarding. Max Marshall (Sumner) won the Under 14 ‘s. Local boardriders Point Surf Team was the best performing club. The South Island Surfing circuit kicks off for the 2011/12 series with the first event in Westport over Labour weekend. The Cape Classic is always an exciting event held in the huge unpredictable swells of Tauranga Bay. Spring is definitely here and with the beaches now open and the water warming up, get out there and enjoy it. Surfboard, bodyboard, swimming, SUP, even a goat boat, have fun out there. See you in the soup.

Hopefully it won’t take too long. Luckily all the other city beaches are still open including Taylors, Sumner (west of Cave rock) and all of New Brighton. The water is now beginning to warm up as well and is about 12º C right now, still cool but it’s lost that knifeedge coldness. The Sumner longboarders reopened the beach in style with their final club contest of the series, on a beautiful sunny Sunday in nice clean two-foot waves at Stoke Street. Luke O’Neill took it out with Ambrose McNeill a close second. Luke and Ambrose are battling to find the over all winner for the year, the points of which are
