Cold water classic goes off in great waves!






The 1st event in the NWSC's mini tour 'The Cold Water Classic' sponsored by Adventure One Surf School was run yesterday in perfect contest conditions. The surf was 3ft and clean and the sun shone all day.

Spectators were treated to some great surfing especially from U14 irish Champion Gearoid Mcdaid whose vertical surfing was in a class above all the other competitors, Gearoid who has travelled up from Sligo at 5am was putting together big off the lips and solid roundhouse cutbacks, much to the enjoyment of the spectators.

The day saw some other great battles in the surf in the 1st round local srfers James Doherty and Paul Mcguckin pushed each other until the end of the heat with James narrowly beating Paul after a judges countback.

Heat2 of round 1 saw two of the fianlists Gearoid and Oisin push local surfer Luke Daly into 3rd and the repercharge.

The Semi finals saw some great surfing with Gearoid getting an 8.5 from all the judges, Luke daly who won the repercharge heat, showed his local knowledge and snagged the best sets with nice long rides and big manouveres all the way to the inside.

Meanwhile it was a battle of young versus old with Oisin Cambell from the CCSC & Fanad surfer Paddy Blaney up against Paul Mcguckin and local surf instructor Iain Gilmour in the second semi final. But it was young OisinCambell who just pipped contest veteran Iain Gilmour into 2nd.

The final was held in perfect waves with the two youngsters Mcdaid and Cambell up against the local Fanad surfer Daly and Gilmour. All 4 surfers caught a high number of waves and all scoring highly on them but the day went to Young Gearoid Mcdaid who took 1st place with Oisin Cambell 2nd, Iain Gilmour 3rd, and Luke Daly 4th.

The club would like to thank Adventure One Surf School, for sponsoring the prizes and Trophies and all the competitors and supporters who made the effort and were rewarded with a great day of surf and sun in North Donegal.
