The majority of the photos were taken by the AMAZING photographer Hattie Root, and she will be out taking photos at the competition in Renfrew!
These photos were taken over two wonderful weekends in Port Renfrew, the first weekend had waves full of sticks and logs but still proved to be a good time! The second weekend boasted very clean and forgiving shorebreak!
Enjoy! 48 Photos Another great skimboarding competition in Victoria this past weekend (July 19th, 2008). Lots of great riders, great music, great food and good times! We at SkimBC.com are still waiting on the official contest results from the guys at Switch Boardshop...
Near the end of the event a trimaran boat pulled into Gonzales Beach and on this boat was the band Brave New Wave who put on an amazing show for the rest of the day! It was certainly one of the most memorable skimboarding competitions to date! 67 Photos Riders include: Marcus Piercy, Caleb, Brennan Wolfe, Byron Schultz, and Brandon Wright. 24 Photos Skim Jam III went off on June 7th at Cadboro Bay in Victoria, BC. The event had 24 riders and had a spectator head-count of 124 people! It was a great turnout considering the rediculous wind that all the participants had to fight throughout the day.
Skim Jam III was hosted by UVic Engineering and SkimBC.com (woo hoo), the Engineers were cooking up delicious hotdogs during the entire event and had a whicked DJ spinning tunes all day (thanks Poya!).
The sponsors of Skim Jam III included: Harbour Air, Switch Boardshop, 77 Skimboards, Zed Skimboards, Akwa Industries, Sitka Surfboards and Coastline Snow and Surf.
There were some sick tricks pulled by the riders at the event and some NASTY bails (check out Derek's 50-50 to back snapper on the up-flat rail photo below!). All the riders brough out there top quality tricks on that windy Saturday, thankfully nobody got seriously hurt!
