MBC Comp 1 2010

Mandurah Body Board Club's first comp for the 2010 season kicked off last weekend at the Northern end of Singleton beach.

The predicted decent swell we were hopeing for didn't really rear it's head but there was some fun clean waves on offer for the keen members on hand. New and old members made the most of the picture perfect weather and punchy waves on offer to kick off the season of competition with a bang!

First of all a big THANKS to everyone's patience and hard work to get thing's moving on the morning due to John REEFLEX Barker and partner Fee giving birth to there handsome little man Jai. Thanks for puting up with me running the comp :) couldnt have done it without the help of our commitee members and a huge help out from Helen Rakich on the day!

RESULTS:

AAA Division

The triple A division didn't upset with some amazing surfing going down during the semi's and final. The boys are surfing with confidence way beyond there age and it makes for an exciting competition to watch. In the end it was new club member Jake Metcalf getting the judges approval with his strong surfing throughout the day coming in first. Close behind was Lewy Finnegan, George Humphries and Cam Hutchins making for a really tight final. Be sure to keep an eye on these guys at this weekend's State Title's at Mandurah Wedge!

AA Division

The double A Division is chock o block full of talent climbing up the ranks at the moment and was a pleasure to see everyone ripping through there heats. In the end it was Jake Metcalf's day, winning all his heats and taking out the final with consistent surfing throughout the day. Mat Rakich taking second with Davis Blackwell and Cam Hutchins in third and fourth respectively.

A Division

It was insane to see the A division buldging at the seams with so many competitors entering, making this the biggest division in the club. The long day of competition was worth it for Rockingham pocket rocket Stephen Dodd taking out first place. Following close behind was Ethan Williams, Mick Perkins and Mitch Warr. Once again, great to see so many new members in this division making for a strong future for the club!

DK Division

The Dropknee final kicked of with a straight up final for the dker's that were on hand. Was great to see a couple of new guys giving the stance a go this year. In the end though it was Declan Genge taking out the final with ease. Declan travels up from Margeret River to each comp, now that's dedication kids! Luke Zimmer took second with Dean Rakich getting one up over his older brother Matt Rakich finishing third and fourth respectively.
