An amazing day of surf in Thurso for the O’Neill Coldwater Classic. Big waves, offshore winds and one of the best waves in the world (and its on this humble island of ours) have made this the best start to the Coldwater Classic ever.
The really pleasing thing for me is that two local lads who I have been lucky enough to work with over the years and in the event and one has made it to the next round (St Ives lad Jayce Robinson) and the other is in a heat tomorrow morning. Patrick Daniel is in heat 23 and is well worth keeping an eye on for the future. He hasn’t even done his GCSE’s yet so give him support online at http://www.oneill.com/cwc/Live.html.
Failing that, ask him how he got on when he takes you for a lesson this summer! He was a coaching assistant for us last year and he’s going to fit in a few lessons for us this year when he’s not on the road launching his fledgling career.
Go son!
