I haven't shot much bodyboarding, but if there was one event I wasn't going to miss it was this one - the
Tand Invitational. If the photos from last year were anything to go by, we were in for a day of some insane riding... and that's exactly what we got. The contest takes place on a slab (a shallow reef / rock shelf) up the West Coast; the spot is really beautiful - raw, wild and undisturbed. The waves were in the 6-8ft range, maybe even bigger. This year's winner was
Jared Houston, who took away the grand prize of R20 000. For more info on the contest visit the IBA World Tour website
