Harley Clifford Wins Best Wakeboarder and Best Trick
Congrats to Harley Clifford, who cleaned up at Boarder Magazine's Rider's Choice Awards in Sydney by winning Best Male Wakeboarder and Best Trick with a wake-to-wake backside 1080. "It was a super fun night," Harley said. "We had a great turnout since it was right after the Liquid Force Boardstock event. Overall, it was amazing to be recognized like this in front of all my Australian friends, family and all the other riders I've looked up to since I was a kid."
BearBack Surf Contest 2012
The 5th Annual Bearback Surf contest took place last Saturday. I am not sure what was more unusual to see.. 30 guys surfing with no wetsuit or a handful of them either nude or in girls bikinis. The photos and poem below will tell it all!!
Getting ready to brave the cold water...
True Style points...
Jack Daley finishing his heat.

From the beach...

Trophy in hand.
(Fifth Annual)
The ocean kisses my toes.
My brain says, "NO!"
but my body goes.
I cringe, look around,
Too late to back out now.
What is wrong with me?
Can I fake an injury?
The ocean kisses my knees,
I start to chatter, I start to freeze.
Jimmy and Greg are staring me down,
Too late to back out now.
The ocean kisses my balls,
I see Chyo go over the falls,
I wonder aloud,
Is it too late to back out now?
These other guys can't be as cold
As my old bones,
I could be warm at home,
I howl, "IT'S TOO LATE TO BACK OUT NOW!"
Why, why do I do this?
The lips hit like cold, liquid bricks
I can't breathe, now up to my hips,
I should just dive and get it over with!
I duck dive.
And then it's me
And some friends,
Shivering in the medium tide,
Surfing bearback at the pier.
Northside.

An Update from Holly Beck!
The words of Holly Beck herself...
Hello Amigos and Happy New Year!
It's been a while since I sent out an update and there's almost too
much info to cover... The waves in Nica have been super fun as usual. I did a bit of filming both with my GoPro and during the retreats, and put together a little video with a few waves and fun.
Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BslOmOtXp6c
I had an incredibly rewarding week of 17 high school kids from High Tech High in San Diego who came down for 10 days to participate in all the normal retreat activities but also helped to build a new classroom onto the local school. They surfed in the morning, then learned to mix cement, dug trenches, and painted, then participated in fun activities in the afternoon. I made a fun video about the experience here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxAaDF9-1EE
The following week I had a group of 10 for a Suave Dulce surf yoga retreat where we finished up the painting on the school and scored the bay about as good as it gets. Check out the video below and stay tuned to the end to see some clips of me surfing it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-eIx1Dcnmc
I've been on a mission building schools lately. I just got back yesterday from El Salvador where I was helping to complete the High School project that we started in September with Surf For Life. I haven't gotten to editing the footage from that experience yet, but hopefully will soon!
Thanks for the support! Hope to see you in Nica sometime!
