3airs: Ribeira D'Ilhas Surf Comp

Under 12's final

Last weekend was the 2nd stage of the Ericeira Surf Tour, this time held at Ribeira D'Ilhas.
As the swell predicted, Saturday was blessed with sun, no wind and great waves :)
Both under 18's and OPEN categories went in and completed most rounds just leaving the finals for Sunday.
Luis entered both and after a long day of surfing...and paddling, it was time to go home and rest.

Sunday the swell had dropped and there was a lot to do. Klaus was in the first heat of the day and Luis was in the last.

As there are not many girls doing the contest, Keshia decided to also enter the Under 14's boys..... which made some of the boys wonder if they should go in or not as, none of them would want to admit that they got beat by a girl. Anyway, many of them had to as Keshia got to the finals.

So, a great weekend with some excellent results and prices ( even if some were too big for the kids...)

Luis claimed 1st in the OPEN and 2nd in the Under 18's
Keshia 2nd in the girls OPEN and 3rd in the Boys Under 14's
Klaus with a 2nd place in the Boys Under 12's.

Thanks so much to all the members of the club, the organization and spectators. They all do a great job.
Next round will be in October.

Till then, here are some cool shots :)
