Back in July St Ives Surf school hosted their annual Swellboard Shootout at Porthmeor beach. The sun was shining and the waves were trickling through crying out for swellboards. The swellboard shootout is a fancy dress surf competition and the beach was riddled with kitsch outfits.
Anyway ive had these images sitting on my laptop for a while and never got round to uploading them, so here’s a taste of what was cracking. Oh and the Prawns won, although the G.A.S Guls were obviously the stand outs.

Comment: So i didnt do a report this morning because it was flat but its slowly been building all morning. Nice defined sets and now around waist high. Super clean in the light offshore breeze. May still build a little throughout the day. Watch the water by the river though, looking a bit dodge.

Comment: Its looking fairly fun at the moment although the wind is starting to pick up and swing more westelry. If your going in try and make it as soon as possible. The picture today doesnt really do it justice, it was bigger on sets.
