Queenscliff Boardriders Club(QBC) had their end of the year “man on man” competition. There was a nice little wind swell for the day and a lot of the top surfers from the club showed up to win. The prestige of the “man on man” event is that it showcases the best competitive surfers in the club and creates an entertaining day of high level surfing. Since 1978 in the clubs history there has been a lot of high level surfers from the WCT to the WQS including names like Rob Bain, Layne Beachley, Sam Page and Nick Riley. The new insurgence of competitive surfers from the club, like Nick “Danga” Buttler, Sophia Bernard and Ben Hamilton are leading the ratings and pushing the level of the monthly competitions that QBC organize for his members. One of the features of the QBC includes a warm welcoming to traveling or overseas surfers (like me) that add dynamics to the club and an interesting way to write their history and share their pride. This years results were a mix of the locals and the traveling surfers playing rock, paper, scissors for priority and a “blow in” (as they say in Australia) played paper for the win 😉 Thank you to all the club members for the sharing the stoke and camaraderie. Heres a mini film of the comp day through the eyes of a mini Charlotte.
