Irish Freestyle Nationals, Rusheen Bay, Galway
Rusheen freestyle frenzy.
Surfdock Team riders Oisin Van Gelderen
and Gwilym Williams (a Rusheen local) did
Surfdock proud, taking first and second
overall at the event.
The event was held
in the flat waters of Rusheen Bay, Galway
and the conditions were pretty ideal
with 15 to 20 knots for most of the weekend
and super flat water.
Oisin
won both finals with a smooth performance
of spocks, switch stance moves and
loops. Oisin’s training in
Fuerteventura over the summer with Gwilym
certainly paid off.
Other stand-outs
include Daniel King's one-handed spock
540s, Nigel & Tim's smooth grubbies,
brothers Simon and Finn Gormley, who
are only 14 years old but pulling off
flat water cheese rolls and the McGuire
brothers (see a pattern emerging here?)
whose spocks and forwards loops added
to the Rusheen freestyle frenzy!
The
Silver fleet was won by Alex Walshe
and the Ladies by Noelle Doran.
