I was lucky this weekend because I got to visit one of my favorite places in the world, Tofino. B.C. I watched some of my favorite athletes and friends compete in this year's Rip Curl Stew Surf Comp. The event celebrates Canada's growing surf scene and attracts longboarders, groms (a.k.a junior surfers) and Canada's top professional surfers.
The scene is always fun with music, parties, fashion and of course the warm stew being served up right on the beach. This year Peter Devries won the big $5000.00 check, coming first in the men's category, followed by Sepp Bruhwiler in second and Raph Bruhwiler in third. Lea Oke won the women's category for the second year in a row and Kalum Bruhwiler placed first in the Juniors.
I got to surf great conditions on Sunday and had a fantastic time enjoying everything this Tuff little beach town had to offer. Hopefully, I'll see you there next year?
