Keshia is Under 18's regional champion

This weekend was the last last of the Samadi Regional Championships, which took place in Costa da Caparica.
The forecast was not looking too promising as the swell was increasing considerably from Saturday morning.
The check-in was at 08:00 and when we got there, it looked tiny....hmmmmm is this right?
Contests was on the way at 9am and so was the swell.
By the time Keshia entered her first heat, the waves were around 1.5m and building.
It was a great event and the contest director decided to finish on Saturday due to the ever increasing swell. Keshias final was held in easy 2 meter waves but she managed to drop the biggest waves and pull some strong maneuvers on them, solidifying her scores and making it 4 out of 4 wins and therefor becoming Under 18's Regional Champion for 2011.

One more tittle wrapped up for the year, one more to come on November 20th.

Thans for everything as always and we will keep posting updated :)
