2007 Vic Champ Red Ceglowski
Hi everyone,
The Victorian kneeboard Title is on the line. The Victorian Masters Titles is being held at Woolamai Phillip Island 3rd & 4th May 2008. Entry has to be in by 25th April.

Entry can be downloaded from http://www.surfingaustralia.com/eventdetail.aspx?eid=15042. Contact details are
Po Box Torquay Vic 3228 Phone (03)52612907 or fax (03)52614460.

You will also need to have surfing Australia Membership; you can get it from here. http://www.surfingaustralia.com/ratings.aspx
We need as many K’boarder as possible to go to and support this event. To show surfing Australia that we have a strong following and a voice and opinions that need to be considered in all their decisions with surfing at a Amateur level. If you love the sport and want to see it survive TURN UP to this event.

It’s a great event and heats are 20 mins. Longer than the 15 minute heats you get at the ProAm events.

The Vic titles is a prestige’s event, has a great history and some of the best
kneeboarders in the World have won this event.

Just to name a few whom have won this event: Kneeboard Legend Neil Luke, Phill Chadwick, Rob Taylor, Tim Kadwell, Mick Decasio, Mick Brockly, Pete Fairweather, Dean Bould, Stan Kofoed, James Anderson, Red Cegklowski the Current holder of the state tital
.

All these surfers on their day are world beaters.

Contest are Awesome fun and will/do Improve your surfing so if you wan too surf hot compete and maybe your name can be added to this list. Not only that you will get to meet some great people , catch up on stories and have some fun going freesurfing with other like minded super keen kneelos and keep k boarding alive in state rounds .

By the way Red reckons he's gunna keep hold of his title and we aint got a chance of taking it away from him .I for one want to test his non founded foolish theories. And I need others to help humble him. He tells me his newly remodelled board with the new improved nose (thanks to a reef at a secret location) has improved his chances of 2 state titles in a row… “we will see Red”…

Second I want to get a kneeboard club started in Vicco.

Our Kneeboard club can be associated with either Phillip Island Board riders or Peninsula Surfriders clubs. This is a great idea as this lets us use their clubrooms and gear .

But we run our events for ourselves some of my Ideas are: An open event for all age groups… Double elimination… So every one gets at least 2 heats and a chance to make a final.
Age group event, open the age division up so we can have more surfers per division.
IE. Cadets 10 to 16 yrs
Juniors 16 to 25 yr
Open senior 26 to 45 yrs
Masters 46 to 55 yrs
Senior masters 55 + yrs

So you can see the minimum amount of surfs per contest would be three times, x 5 rounds. Best 3 results would give you your aggregate score.

And in the event that surfing vic takes Kneeboarding out of their events we could still get a state champ out of these contests in the open and age divisions “Yes an age divisions state champ”.

This would also allow Vicco Kneeboarders compete against the NSW clubs in their team’s challenge event.

Please Pm or email me your interest so we can get thing on the go. remember there is nothing like that kneeling of the ceiling feeling

Cheers Stan
