EP lighties shine @ SA Champs

The EP lighties really stepped up to the plate in the u20 division of the SA Champs held in Durbs this weekend. Emma Smith won the girls, and Dylan Lightfoot got a 3rd in the boys. Overall EP got a 5th, with Southern KZN winning. New Pier gooi'd up some really contestable lil runners with favourable winds - so everyone was stoked!

Defending SA Surfing Champion Casey Grant (SKZN) clinched the 2013 Cool Shoe SA Surfing Championship open men's title at Durban's New Pier today. Grant convincingly outscored his opponents in the final, beating ISA World Masters Champion Greg Emslie (Border), Klee Strachan (SCKZN) and Matt Bromley (WP) winning his second consecutive title in clean 0.5 meter surf.

Mikey February won the Boys, and Nikita Robb the Ladies.
