BARSTE, VERKRUMMELDE VLOERE

Vrou se droomhuis ’n nagmerrie MONIQUE BASSON

H

AAR huis is haar kruis.

`n Jarelange droom om `n huis van haar eie te hê het vir `n enkelma van Ocean View in `n nagmerrie ontaard. Maande se klagtes en gesmeek om hulp oor die nat, gekraakte en verkrummelde Hop-huis val op dowe ore.

“As jou huis vir jou word soos `n paar ton stene, sement en staal wat jy elke dag soos `n reuse-boggel op jou rug moet dra, word jou lewe een lang nagmerrie. Ek weet daar is mense wat nie huise het nie, en mens moet dankbaar wees vir `n dak oor jou kop, maar die lewe in hierdie plek is ’n nagmerrie.”

Só sê Maria Ruiters, `n enkelma van drie kinders. “Vir ons was ons eerste huis `n droom en ons kon nie wag om in te trek nie.

Maar nou is ons in ons eie huis vasgevang,” sê sy bitter.

Ruiters voer sedert April, verlede jaar `n daaglikse stryd met die Kouga-munisipaleit om haar Hop-huis in Ocean View, `n informele nedersetting in Jeffreysbaai, leefbaar en veilig te maak.

Volgens Ruiters is sy nie die enigste inwoner wat probleme met haar huis ondervind nie. “Hoewel die bou-inspekteur die huis goedgekeur en afgeteken het, is die mure besig om ineen te stort, die vloere en mure muf, die verf ‘val’ van die mure af, die ondergrondse waterpype lek met die gevolg dat die kombuis en badkamer permanent nat is, die vensters maak nie reg toe nie en die dun lagie sement wat as die vloer dien, is vol gate en besig om te verkrummel,” sê sy verontwaardig.

“Jy moet sien as hier selfs net `n ligte buitjie val. Dit reën sommer dwarsdeur die mure. My kinders bly hoes en snotneus van die ongerief.

Hulle was nooit voorheen so chronies siek nie. Ek staan elke oggend met onverklaarbare pyne regoor my lyf op. Ons is doodbang vir die winter, want selfs nou in die herfs is die plek heeltemal onleefbaar.”

“Kyk net hierdie massiewe krake in die vloer en mure,” beduie Ruiters. “Hier is nie een ding wat reg is nie. Nie die deure se slotte of die toilet werk nie. Ons kan nie vir ons ander slaapplek gaan soek nie, want dan word ons huis deur vandale geplunder.”

Nog `n steen des aanstoot is die mobiele toilet wat agter haar huis vir die bouers opgerig is. Dié toilet lê al vir die afgelope vyf maaande omgedop en die vrot stank kom tot in haar huis. Die gebied om haar huis is met rommel besaai.

Volgens Ruiters word al dié foute nou na haar maandelange klagtes, net bo-langs toegesmeer. “Dit is nie goed genoeg nie. Die huis moet behoorlik reggemaak word anders gaan ek binne `n maand of twee weer met dieselfde probleem sit.”

Volgens munisipale woordvoerder LauraLeigh Randall het Ruiters na hulle vir hulp gekom en is hulle tans besig om die saak op te volg.

“Die huis is gebou deur ’n kontrakteur wat deur die Departement Menslike Nedersettings aangestel is. Die departement het probleme met die oorspronklike kontrakteur gehad wat nie huise voltooi het nie. ’n Nuwe kontrakteur is intussen aangestel en hy herstel tans onder meer die lekkende ondergrondse waterpype,” sê Randall.

alles volgens skedule verloop, sal die koppelings binne die volgende twee weke voltooi word.”

Jeffreys to sport Oakley X­Over Challenge

16-jarige skuldig aan verkragting ’n 16-jarige jeugdige van Jeffreysbaai wat ’n bejaarde vrou van 56 verkrag het, is verlede Donderdag in die Humansdorp Streekhof 10 jaar gevangenisstraf opgelê.

Die voorval het in Oktober 2012 op die plaas Sonop by Kabeljous plaasgevind.

Beide die beskuldigde, wat 14 jaar ten tyde van die oortreding was, en die slagoffer was op die plaas woonagtig.

Municipality receives WWTW THE Department of Public Works handed over the Patensie Waste Water Treatment Works (WWTW) at the Patensie Prison to the Kouga Municipality yesterday.

The WWTW previously fell under the custodianship of the National Department of Public Works, on land occupied by the prison.

The handover of the facility brings relief to the local municipality which has limited resources to bring services to the developing and growing needs of the community.

Jordy Smith, two times champion of the World Tour surfing event in JBay, is keen for this event and stoked on having some fun at the Oakley X­Over Challenge.

PHOTO:SUPPLIED JEFFREYS Bay will be home to the first Oakley X-Over Challenge in July.

Presented by Oakley South Africa, the Challenge will form part of the JBay Winterfest set to take place from July 10 to 21.

This cross-over challenge comprises a selection of top Oakley athletes competing in a multi-discipline event to crown an Oakley X-Over Champion 2014. The event will consist of a golf tournament, a mountain bike race and a surfing contest. Athletes will need to compete in all three disciplines to be in the

running for the 2014 X-Over crown.

Oakley Sports Marketing Manager Seth Hulley had this project in the mix for a while now, and saw his opportunity to bring it to the fore in partnership with the JBay Winterfest.

“I wanted to do this event for a while,” said Hulley. “I’m pleased to be able to partner with the JBay Winterfest to bring this event to fruition. It’s going to be fun and exciting, and the Oakley athletes are pumped on the event.”

The event is set to run over two days - July

15 and 16 - with a prize-giving and closing function at Jolly Dolphin on the night of July 16.

The athletes confirmed for the X-Over Challenge thus far, comprises Bob Skinstad, Butch James, Dale Steyn, David Miller, Greg Minnaar, John Smit, Jordy Smith, Kevin Evans, Ruan De Smidt, Ryan O’Connor and Ryan Sandes.

The golf tournament will take place at the Links Golf Course in St Francis, the mountain bike race will take place on the JBay Winterfest Track, and the surfing contest will take place at the Lower Point in Jeffreys Bay.

year saw a full house of 120 entries, and you don’t want to miss out.

“Surfing South Africa is stoked to once again be sanctioning and supporting the RVCA Junior Contest in Jeffrey’s Bay this year,” said Surfing South Africa General Manager Robin De Kock. “Last year’s inaugural event was a massive success and the 2014 edition looks set to be even bigger. Junior surf contests are the lifeblood of our sport.

Not only do they give a platform to South Africa’s most talented boys and girls across five age groups, but they also give up and coming surfers the chance to perform on a national stage.”

The divisions are boys u.10, u.12, u.14, u.16 and u.20, and girls u.14 and u.20. The event

has a two Star PST rating.

There will also be a Nixon Weird Board contest in amongst the fun. Eight surfboard shapers from around the country were tasked with shaping a weird board, to be surfed off by the junior surfers in a fun minievent during the main event. Thys Strydom, Eric Stedman, Glen D’Arcy, Glen Rowe, Anton Butler, Dutchie, Simon Fish and David Stubbs all contributed the weirdness.

The RVCA Junior Surfing Contest is sanctioned by Surfing South Africa. Surfing South Africa is a member of the South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC), and recognised by the Dept. of Sport and Recreation as the national controlling body for surfing.

Community worker ‘back on her feet’ MONIQUE BASSON

account number 1053989288, branch code 177205, swift NEDSZAJJ. For more information or to assist the OPD in any way, contact Jos or Dette at 0 076 145 2681 or send an e-mail to info@opd-sa.co.za. Alternatively visit their website at www.opd-sa.co.za.

BRAVING the streets on a decrepit wooden ‘crutch-and-ahalf’ and only one able leg, might have slowed down this good samaritan, but not even the need for a proper walking aid could confine her to the four walls of her house when it came to helping her fellow neighbour.

Pellsrus community worker, Maggie Bezuidenhout’s, desire to help her fellow human being in need, is so great that she puts her own health on the back burner to ensure that those around her are cared for. So much so, that the difficulty of walking was not seen as an obstacle, but as a challenge that needs to be overcome.

Her good and unselfish work, however, has not gone by unseen.

Jos and Dette van den Boogaard from the Organisation for and from People with Disabilities (OPD) South Africa reached out to Bezuidenhout and equipped her with modern crutches - making her work a whole lot easier.

Not only have they blessed her with crutches, but also with a white and blue wheelchair that can be used by community members free of charge - a commodity that is in constant demand. Wheelchairs are usually hired out at R50 per trip by residents who are fortunate enough to own one.

Bezuidenhout’s struggle started when she badly injured her left foot at work at the beginning of February this year. “I went to hospital where they gave me one short and one long wooden crutch. It was nearly impossible and extremely uncomfortable to walk with these crutches. The more I tried to walk forward, the more I ended up going backwards,” says Bezuidenhout.

“After six weeks of hell, Jos and Dette surprised me with modern crutches and a wheelchair to be used by community members - this only two days after they had heard about my struggle.

“Now I can once again walk around comfortably and be of assistance to my people in Pellsrus.”

Dette says: “Many disabled people in the Kouga region are in need of an aid to be able to actively participate in community life. The problem is, however, that these people must wait more than three years before they receive as much as a walking stick from the government.

“Daily we experience the suffering of residents who are confined to their homes, not being able to visit friends or even go to the clinic or church. It is our mission to supply these people with the aids they need, on a temporary basis until they receive a wheelchair or walking frames from the government. At the moment we have a waiting list of 15 people in need of a wheelchair.

“From April last year to date we have seen 68 people in need, of which we were only able to help 12. “It breaks our hearts that we cannot assist more people.”

The OPD is in great need of any wheelchairs - which they can repair if needed - crutches, walking frames and monetary donations. Donations can be paid to Nedbank,

Riëtte ­ met ’n knippie sout MONIQUE BASSON NET soos biltong oor die jare sinoniem met ’n Saterdagmiddag langs die rugbyveld geword het, net so is Riëtte Buchner sinoniem met Jeffreysbaai en sy mense.

Met haar klokherlder lag en fyn humorsin het sy jou binne minute aan die skaterlag en praat. Benewens haar groot liefde vir die see, lê die natuur en diere haar na aan die hart - al beteken dit sy moet vyf dae ry om haar viervoetige kind terug by die huis te besorg.

Met ’n hart wat warm klop vir dié kusdorp, het sy na drie jaar die warm waters van Mosambiek vir die koue strome van haar grootword-vakansiedorp verruil en verkoop nou van die lekkerste biltong en droëwors op die dorp.

Riëtte, gebore op ’n plaas in Patensie in die jare sewentigs, het as ’n kaalvoetdogtertjie saam met Jeffreysbaai gegroei.

“My ouers het ’n vakansiehuis in Jeffreysbaai gehad, en van wat ek kan onthou, hou ons hier vakansie. As jong kind het ons kuslangs na Astonbaai geloop waar ek en my vriende heerlik in die swembad daar baljaar het. Die hoogtepunt van ons besoek aan Jeffreysbaai was die toe bekende Ungerer-winkel. Alhoewel daar nie veel te doen en te sien op die dorp was nie, was dit omtrent ’n groot gedoente om by die winkel inkopies te doen.

Onthou, ons kom van die plaas af, en was nie winkels gewoond nie,” vertel sy laggend.

Sy en haar man, Hansie, was later jare die bestuurders van die Lombardini Wildsplaas waar sy haar liefde vir die natuur ten volle kon

uitleef en ’n onvergeetlike wildervaring vir beide toeriste en plaaslike inowners kon bied.

In 2009 het hulle die rustige plaaslewe vir die gewoel van Jeffreysbaai verruil waar sy vir twee jaar ’n suksesvolle eiendomsagent was.

Met die ‘wanderlust’ wat dik deur hul are vloei, het hulle einde 2010 die stof van Jeffreysbaai van hul voete afgestof en ’n lodge in Mosambiek oopgemaak waar hulle vir die afgelope tien jaar gereeld gaan vakansie hou het.

Maar in 2013 het die verlange te groot geword, en is hulle sak en pak terug in Jeffreysbaai - gereed om nuwe uitdagings aan te pak.

Maar voor dit moes Riëtte eers vyf dae ry om haar geliefde hond, Tipo, in Mosambiek te gaan haal. “Met ons terugkoms was daar nie vir hom in die motor plek nie, maar ek het met die eerste kans wat ek kon kry teruggegaan na Mosambiek om hom te gaan haal,” vertel sy.

“Ons het drie onvergeetlike jare in Mosambiek gehad, maar die verlange na Jeffreysbaai en ons mense het net te veel geword. Die mense van Jeffreysbaai voel soos ons familie en ons geniet die ontspanne atmosfeer wat kenmerkend van die dorp is. As ons Port Elizabeth toe gaan, dan trek ons aan.”

Slaggereed vir nuwe uitdagings het Riëtte onlangs die nuwe Biltong Shoppi langs Checkers in Da Gamaweg oopgemaak. “Ek het dadelik begin uitkyk vir iets om te doen.

Toe ek sien die biltongwinkel wat vir jare hier was, het toegemaak, het ek geweet die publiek kort weer ’n biltongwinkel hier,” sê sy.

Terwyl die biltong en droëwors hang om uit

te droog, gaan Riëtte nie in die lug hang en ledig wees nie. Daarvoor is haar kop te besig en haar kreatiwiteit en energie te veel.

Sy beplan om binnekort handgemaakte houtmeubels op aanvraag te verkoop, asook

ingevoerde lap van Mosambiek.

Riëtte het ’n groot passie vir die see en buitelewe en sy hoop om voor die einde van die jaar haar eie kwekery tussen Jeffreysbaai en Humansdorop oop te maak.

Na drie jaar in Mosambiek, is oud­inwoner Riëtte Buchner terug in die dorp en spog met haar eie Biltong Shoppi.

Gamtoosboere mor oor vrotgetrapte pad LEOLYNN SMITH SITRUSBOERE in die Gamtoosvallei sit weer hande in die hare oor dié gebied se voosgetrapte paaie noudat dit weer tyd is om hul uitvoerproduk na die Baai aan te ry.

Die Gamtoosvallei se sitrusboere sê hulle is verby keelvol uitgehou met die voosgetrapte paaie waarop hulle uitvoer­sitrusprodukte na die Baaise hawe moet vervoer. Die provinsiale regering het blykbaar aan hulle verduidelik daar is nie geld vir herstel of onderhoud nie. FOTO:NIEKERK FERREIRA

Elke dag word tussen 10% en 15% van die sitrus só gekneus dat dit nie meer uitgevoer kan word nie, wys Petrus du Preez, die voorsitter van die Gamtoosvallei-landbouvereniging, uit. “Die paaie in die omgewing is grondpaaie, maar dis jare laas met ’n nuwe laag bedek. Dit word net elke keer geskraap. Nou is dit op die nerf geskraap. Dis net klippe en gate.”

Gevolglik moet die 34 ton-vragmotors, met die kratte vol sitrusprodukte, ekstra stadig ry om stampskade sover moontlik te voorkom.

“Dít maak weer die rytyd na die Baaise hawe minstens ’n halfuur langer,” sê Du Preez.

Maar dis nie net die sitrusprodukte wat deurloop nie.

“Die vragmotors se buitebande bars wanneer dit die slaggate en skerp klippe tref. Skoolvervoer het al net so ’n groot probleem ge-

word, omdat die kontrakteurs se voertuie net nie hou nie,” sê Du Preez.

Willem de Villiers, een van die kontrakteurs, is al raadop. “My motor word baie beskadig as gevolg van die swak pad – en dit vréét die buitebande.”

De Villiers vervoer die kinders op die R520, ook bekend as die Andrieskraal-pad, na die plaasskool Sonop.

“En as die water (ná die reëns) afkom, kan ek nie ry nie. Dan gaan die kinders nie skool toe nie. Baie van die kinders moet elke tweede jaar ’n graad herhaal, omdat dit so ’n gesukkel is om by die skool uit te kom.”

Soos in vorige jare, beklemtoon Du Preez, klop hulle weer aan die provinsiale departement se deur vir hulp, net om te hoor daar is nie geld nie.

“In die verlede is die paaie ten minste een keer per jaar geskraap, nou is daar nie eens meer geld daarvoor nie,” mor hy.

Die Burger het die departement om kommentaar genader, maar is gesê dit sal eers Maandag gelewer kan word aangesien die aangewese persoon dan weer terug op kantoor sal wees.

In Ocean View, ’n informele nedersetting in Jeffreysbaai, span onwettige kragkabels soos spinnerakke oor die pad om elektrisiteit aan honderde inwoners te voorsien. Baie van die innoverende ‘ingenieurs’ is jong kinders. Volgens munisipale woordvoerder, Laura­Leigh Randall, gaan 12% van die elektrisiteit wat Eskom aan die Kouga­munisipaliteit voorsien, maandeliks verlore. Dit sluit in kragdiefstal en tegniese oorsake.

Toddler ‘hosts’ birthday party for orphans HE might be too young to remember this day, but those whose lives he touched will never forget.

One-year-old Liam Warner-Atkinson from Jeffreys Bay celebrated his first birthday on April 19 as any other birthday boy – with balloons, gifts, cake and sweets - …. but with one difference. Instead of inviting friends and family and ripping through colourful wrapping paper, he shared his special day with boys and girls who do not have a mommy or daddy of their own.

On this day 19 children of up to eight years old from the 7th Heaven Children’s Haven and Victory4All Safe House, joined little Liam in a royal celebration fit for a prince and princess. Apart from indulging in cake and sweet treats, they each got a little gift to take home with them – a first for many of them.

“Liam’s name means unwavering protector. As his parents we feel that it is important to teach our children from a very young age to care about those who are not as fortunate as they,” says Liam’s mom, Venice.

“If we could give these innocent children, who come from dire conditions, and many times tremendous abuse, even just one happy day a year where they can feel special, we are more than happy to do so.

“We will definitely be making this an annual event where the orphaned children will be our number one priority.”

According to Venice, their aim is to create a life-long legacy for Liam and their future children. “This day would have not been such a huge success without our sponsors: Dirco Creations, Checkers Equinox, Checkers in Da Gama Road, Office4U, Trenz Decor Hire, We Pack, Fountains Mall, Fruit and Veg City and U-Save.”.

To get involved with similar projects, contact Venice at 0 081 270 4914 or send her an e-mail at info@dircocreations.co.za.

Oyster Bay: 11 turbines erected MONIQUE BASSON CONSTRUCTION of the R2 billion Kouga Wind Farm at Oyster Bay is on track with eleven of the 32 wind turbines already gracing the skyline.

It is expected that the last turbine will be erected by the end of September this year, with commissioning ongoing until end 2014.

When operational the wind farm will generate 80MW of clean and renewable power - this is enough energy to supply 100 000 households.

Some 250 jobs will be created during the construction phase. Seventeen of these jobs will be unskilled labour which will be sourced locally. The remainder will be made up of a balance between semi-skilled and skilled jobs to be sourced locally as much as possible.

Apart from generating clean and renewable energy, the project will benefit local communities through the Red Cap Kouga Community Development Trust. The Trust, which holds a 26% shareholding in the project company, courtesy of an Industrial Development Corporation loan, will derive income off the sale of electricity and this will be used to uplift the local community by funding various projects in the area.

Gelukkige Moedersdag - 11 Mei Haal die “kap” uit ouerskap MARINDA CONRADIE OUERS word daagliks toegegooi onder die laste by die werk, hul baas se verwagtinge, huispaaiement, water en ligte en erfbelasting-rekenings, kospryse, stygende brandstofkostes, skoolfonds, kleregeld, versekering, die gevolglike stresvlakke, paniek, huwelik-bytery en nog ‘vele meer’...

En dan het ons nog nie eers die kinders genoem nie!

Dis net hier waar die bus se wiele afval.

Om al die bogemelde op hok te hou, is heftig genoeg. Voeg dan die eise van ouerskap in die 21ste eeu by, en die mees gematigde mens kan sy “cool” verloor.

Nou hoe gemaak?

Almal weet kinders het liefde, dissipline en konsekwente ouerlike leiding nodig.

Maar dit hou nie daarby op nie.

HUMORSIN Kenners meen dat mens eerstens nie jou humorsin met die baba se badwater moet uitgooi nie.

Ongelukkig is dit makliker gesê as gedaan. As die baba onophoudelik skree, is niemand lus om kalm te glimlag dat alles onder beheer is nie. As die kind die venster

vir die derde keer met sy krieketbal uitgooi of die tiener sy mond soos ‘n blaasoppie oppomp, is die sin uit die humor uit.

Maar die kenners is reg: ‘n gesonde skoot humorsin bring ’n balans. Mens moenie jouself te ernstig opneem nie EN poog om die lag by die traan raak te sien.

ouerlike ongeduld en stresbelaaide irritasie.

Ontspanne en vervulde kinders het pret met hulle ouers. As ouers te besig, te belangrik en te gespanne is, betaal die kinders die prys.

Bring pret terug. Geld koop nie pret nie.

Sulke kinders kry skaars tyd vir speel.

En speel is belangrik vir leer. Dis beter om kinders aan te moedig om hul beste te lewer as om hulle te druk om JOU beste te lewer.

TYD

WERK

Die groot stryd van die dag is natuurlik TYD. Soveel ouers is bloot te besig. Die werk, ontspanning, eietyd, gesinsvereistes en gerondjaag steel tyd.

Hulle gooi hul kinders toe met elektroniese toe-stelle om hulle besig te hou, omdat hulle tyd self beperk is. Die TV word die ‘ma’, en Hollywood is nie die beste ouer wat ek ken nie.

Skep tyd vir jou kind. Neem een-een uit vir ’n melkskommel of ’n stappie op die strand. Lees ‘n slaaptydstorie of leer kinders HOE om met etenstyd sinvol te gesels.

En luister sonder om mening te lug of te preek. Gee jou kind ’n drukkie en maak tyd om elkeen spesiaal te laat voel.

Ongelukkig heet daar ‘n ‘zeitgeist’ van verwenning. Kinders wat alles kry wat hulle wil hê, word grootmense wat glo almal en die wêreld skuld hulle iets.

Sulke kinders leer nie om takies in die huis te doen vir die welstand van die hele gesin nie. Hulle verwag betaling vir alles wat hulle moet doen. En ouers dok op.

Dit hang saam met die leer van verantwoordelikheid en sorgsaamheid sonder om vergoed te word.

Die kontroversie rondom straf groei in SuidAfrika. Sommiges glo ’n afgedankste loesing suiwer die kwaad sommer blitsig uit, en ander sê: NEE! Mens leer nie ’n kind waardes en liefde as jy hom moker nie.

Kinders in een gesin is so verskillend in persoonlikheid en benadering dat jy nie elkeen oor dieselfde kam kan skeer nie.

Een reageer goed op ’n klop op die agterkant, terwyl ’n ander eerder hoekie toe moet gaan. Een soek ’n verduideliking en die ander ’n bemoediging.

As ouers hul kinders oor dieselfde kam skeer, is dit ‘n onreg. Die balans moet natuurlik gehou word sodat die een nie voel die ander word voorgetrek of bevoordeel nie.

PRET Dit bring ons by pret. Pret is eenvoudig en ’n benadering wat teenstrydig is met die

BEMOEDIG Te veel ouers plaas druk op hul kinders om te presteer - veral in ’n veld waar hulle self nie of wel die beste bereik het.

Die punte moet noodwendig hemelhoog wees, die sport en buite-aktiwiteite word opgehoop - en die arme bloedjie is pootuit en aggressief of depressief.

STRAF

Maar niemand moet verskreeu word nie.

Dan, liewe ouer, het jy reeds beheer verloor. .Marinda Conradie is ‘n plaaslike predikant en geregistreerde berader.

Second set of invitees announced for JBU Super Trial BRENTON WILLIAMS THE JBU Surf Club has announced the next four invited surfers in the JBU Super Trial, and they are Sean Holmes, Warren Dean, Dylan Lightfoot and Slade Prestwich.

The JBU Super Trial has a waiting period for the month of June, and will produce one wild card into the ASP JBay Open World Tour event, set to take place from10-21 July. The ASP JBay Open World Tour event forms part

of the JBay Winterfest.

The four invited surfers are a mix of experience and youth, with Sean Holmes and Warren Dean the old school Supers rippers, and Dylan and Slade representing the new school chargers.

Sean Holmes is one of the perennial standouts at Supertubes, and has a long and extremely illustrious history at the surf spot. He has deposed of world champions like Kelly Slater and the late Andy Irons year after year, and shows no sign of slowing down.

With his nickname of ‘The Nemesis,’ Holmesy will be making any World Tour surfer nervous should he get the wild card into the main event. With the nuances of Supers in his DNA, Sean surfs with extreme confidence at Supers, and has an uncanny ability in the fabled Supers barrel.

Local ripper Dylan Lightfoot is delighted with his invite. ”Ever since I was a grom frothing on the beach at every Billabong Pro trying to get the Pro surfers autographs, its been my dream to surf the main event! I will

The victories see the pair take an early lead in the rankings to select the three men and one woman who will represent ASP Africa at the 2014 ASP World Junior Surfing Championships scheduled for the end of October.

Lightfoot (19) from Jeffreys Bay, took the momentum from his top 16 finish in an ASP QS event in Argentina last weekend into this event by convincingly winning his opening heat.

The third seed then placed second to Cape Town’s Jordy Maree in Round 2 before getting revenge by defeating Maree in their Man-onman semi-final encounter.

In the final Lightfoot used a patient strategy, picking off the best lined-up waves across the Outer Pool point, to defeat top seed Diran Zakarian (Melkbosstrand) whose tactics of catching plenty of waves and going for big manoeuvres saw him relegated to the runner-up berth.

“The waves were a lot harder than they looked. There was a lot of chop on them, and the big ones were no good,” said Lightfoot. “I was looking for the middle waves, the ones that had more potential across the inside. I’m just so stoked with my first win of the year and am looking forward to the upcoming contest season. This has been an amazing event,

and the waves have been so much fun throughout.”

Lightfoot pocketed R8 000 and 750 rankings points for the victory along with the Nixon WTA (Winner Takes All) Award of a Nixon Supertide watch for the highest heat score of the event, 16.5 out of a possible 20 points in his semi-final win.

Zakarian, who won every heat he contested up to the final, collected R4 000 and 563 points for placing second and also picked up the VonZipper Brainblast-Off award for completing a big backhand air reverse in the VZ Airshow.

Emma Smith from Jeffreys Bay justified her top seeding in the women’s 20-and-under division, winning her opening encounter, placing second to Chanelle Botha (Warner Beach) in the semis and then clinching the title in a low scoring final. Smith took home R4 000 and earned 750 points which puts her in pole position for a second consecutive appearance at the ASP World Junior Championships in October.

‘Epiese’ rekord ondanks strome WANNEER Brenton Williams in Mei die bibberkoue water om Kaappunt aandurf, sal hy minstens een rekord reeds agter sy naam hê.

Williams van Jeffreysbaai, en Kendal Wright, ook ’n plaaslike swemmer, het Saterdag (sover bekend) die eerste swemmers geword wat om Robpunt in Kaap St. Francis geswem het.

Die 8 km-seeroete tussen St. Francisbaai en die Robpunt-vuurtoring is bekend vir wisselvallige en sterk strome.

“Met die swem onderweg na Robpunt was die wind agter ons en was dit redelik maklik,” sê Williams, wat vir sy vlinderslag bekend is.

Maar met slegs ’n Speedo-styl swembroek, swempet en duikbril en ’n seetemperatuur van 17 °C was die swemtog nie heelpad gemaklik nie.

“Dit was koud en het gevoel of al die natuurelemente met die terugtog teen ons gedraai het.”

Cheryl Gibson-Dicks, amptelike waarnemer van die rekordpoging, het tydens die swemtog saam op ’n boot agterna gevaar. Vol-

gens Gibson-Dicks kon sy duidelik sien hoe die swemmers se aanslag by die omdraaipunt verander het. “Die swemmers het werklik hard gewerk om teen die sterk stroom terug te swem.

“Selfs die bystandbeamptes op die boot het die swemmers se welstand fyner dopgehou,” sê Gibson-Dicks.

Ná 3 uur en 38 minute het die swemmers weer voet aan wal in St. Francisbaai gesit.

“Dit was ’n epiese swemtog en absoluut die moeite werd om dit ten bate van die Little Fighters- kankertrust te doen,” sê Williams.

Williams gaan op 10 Mei die 8 km-swemtog om Kaappunt tussen Diazstrand en Buffelsbaai met die moeilike vlinderslag aanpak.

“Ek besef Kaappunt word as een van die uiterste swemroetes beskou, maar ek sien daarna uit om die roete ook ten bate van kankerpasiënte aan te pak.” ) Meer inligting is op die webblad www.backabuddy.co.za/champion/project/ flying-for-little-fighters beskikbaar.

Deur sterk strome en en koue water om die Robpunt­vuurtoring in St. Francisbaai, het noodhulp­bystand­beamptes die swemmers Kendal Wright (links) en Brenton Williams fyn dopgehou om seker te maak hulle bly veilig.
