The inaugural SDS/Milkshakes Girls Go Bodyboarding Day went off! On Saturday 16th Jan, a cool little crew of girls turned up to experience bodyboarding at North Cronulla. It was awesome to see a mixed age group; from super groms to super mums, there to join in the fun. NSW Bodyboarding head coach - Brendan “Barney” Ryan, skillfully introduced the girls to bodyboarding, with Emma Roby giving some extra tips on advanced bodyboarding to the more experienced riders. Soon the rest of the girls joined us in the fun 2-3ft surf. It was awesome to see a few of the WBA girls also show up for the free surf – Kerry, Rani, Zoe, Julia, and Laura - thanks for showing your support! Super groms Abbey and Sam (of Cronulla) were charging and loving the waves so much,we eventually had to drag them back in to the beach. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, with some girls catching their first ever waves! The girls returned to shore with huge smiles on their faces, loads of sand in their hair, and each person taking away a special experience from the lesson. Back at the surf club, a bunch of prizes were handed out, including free SDS girls rash shirts and 15% off discount at SDS, Milkshakes leashes, Hive swimwear vouchers, and a Milkshakes “Bubblegum” Flavours board - valued at $240 -which was taken home by Abbey Pugh! Some cool photos from the day have also been put up on the SDS website: www.sds.com.au
