Bass SUP event 4

Sunday 6th November saw event 4 for Bass SUP run on a 'quiet day' at Ocean Grove Main Beach. 


Due to the lack of swell, Raffs just wasn't an option but the tiny waves breaking at Main Beach meant another great day was had by all.

Boards were demoed, snags were sacrificed a few pointers were given and by the end of the day everyone was tanned and tired.


Matt Martins fleet of GSI Demo Board got a solid work out and RPS' Fanatic Allwave was a popular board.

We kicked off at a little after 8.30am and before we knew it all the boards were out. The tiny waves on offer meant it was perfect for beginners to have a fun paddle.


John and Dianne had their first time surfing a SUP had a wow of a time Dianne caught umpteen waves and John came up the beach thinking he had done a 1000 sit ups after surfing for 2 hours.
  
Tons of passers by including mums dads and kids all took interest, we signed up some new members, sold a heap of snags and if the sign of a successful event is the number of smiles around the beach then this one was alltime.


Thanks to the Melbourne crew that headed on down, it was great to meet some new people or catch up with those people we have seen on the Yarra or at the Melbourne races.

Big thanks need to go Phill, Kristi, Nesha and Nicki Page who helped make the day a success, thanks to Matty Martin for the tent and GSI board fleet.  Also all the usual suspects Rich, Lummers, Kev, Lazza, Sparks, Justin, the local crew and everyone else for an all time fun session in small waves.


A big thanks goes to Farm Foods again for their support and tasty sausages.
