DONT DO IT!

Theres a certain big US corporation throwing money at boardsports, their only interest is to grab profit and squeeze every last penny/cent out of surfing, snowboarding etc and no doubt at the same time they'll succeed in draining the life and soul out of sports we love....Dont let them do it!!

Check out this website formed to repel these suits.....

"This website is dedicated to keeping sporting goods companies from infilitrating our surf, skate, and snow industry. It is targeted at keeping them from "taking" from our industry, after we have built and cared for it with blood, sweat, and tears"

Unique Beach huts: Lincs coast

Five unique beach huts have been put up along part of the Lincolnshire coast in a bid to update the seaside.

The Bathing Beauties beach hut festival is taking place between Mablethorpe and Chapel St Leonards over the weekend.

East Lindsey District Council commissioned five new huts featuring contemporary designs which will be available for hire to visitors.

Michael Trainor, lead artist, said the huts would attract people to a "partly forgotten" stretch of coastline.

"The overall idea is that when all nine of the huts and some other small structures are in place, there'll be a linear gallery of architecture," he said.

"It aims to attract national and international visitors to this superb, but partly forgotten, 10-mile stretch of the Great British coastline.

Sandilands surfing today

Sandilands enjoyed a solid north swell, which had some 4-5ft sets. Conditions were clean with moderate NW winds holding the waves up for ages. It was a long paddle out and there were 7 other surfers in the water, which is a novelty for a mid-week day time session. It was good fun on some decent size waves at last

Lincs surf club on TV

Channel 7 Televison in Lincolnshire recently produced a short piece on the Lincs surf club and the local surf scene. Unfortunately the waves on the day were really poor, but it was fun to do. Check out the link here:

Sandilands Sept surf

This tues 11th Sept saw a decent northerly north sea ground swell, showing 6ft bouy readings which translated into 3ft waves with 4ft sets at the beach. Wind was light southerly. The waves were peaky and tended to fatten up and be tricky to catch at high tide. The only option was a late take off, steep drop, a short ride then eat it in the sand in a foot of water! There was almost a crowd there with over 10 surfers out, boosted by a showing from the grimsby crew

Sandilands Lincs-surf report

Sandilands today saw a 3ft+ Northerly swell, building throughout the afternoon. Light onshore winds.
