With lots of threads here and there, here us a wrap up!
BEAU NIXON IN-STORE
Beau is on town this weekend and will be appearing at Wind Surf and Snow today from 3-5pm and at Balmoral Paddle Surf tomorrow afternoon from 2pm.
Beau is ranked 4th in the world in SUP and recently took out the SUP division of the Australian Longboard Open.
As well as being a true champion, Beau is also a down to earth guy and easy to talk to.
Tomorrow, from 2pm at Balmoral Paddle Surf we will also have two new DVD's playing on the BIG screen in-store along with some 'coldies' to refresh weary paddlers.
Here is a preview of two of the best DVD releases this year.
H2indO is one of the few pure SUP films to be released in the last year.
It is filmed in the true traditons of a travel film with lots of exotic locations and surf breaks. It is a refreshing film with lots of great action from Jamie Mitchell, Chuck Patterson, Connor Baxter, Slater Trout and Dave Boehne among others.
The tube sections are amazing with some of the best SUP tube riding caught on film.
Tim Bonython's new IMMERSION DVD is a standout. It contains some of the most amazing footage from some of the best surfing sessions from around the world over the last few years. All the BIG epic days are here with LOTS of awesome footage from all over the globe. It is a SURF film which touches on every kind of way to play in the ocean, including SUP.
Swing by, say g'day and catch these two awesome new films!
