Men's and Women's Open Champions Crowned on Day 1 of The Welsh

Josie Hawke and Patrick Langdon-Dark are our new Welsh National Surfing Championships Women's and Men's Open champions.

The pair put on outstanding displays in day one of The Welsh yesterday at a blustery Freshwater West, Pembrokeshire, where a southerly swell produced solid head high waves for our competitors to perform on.

We also had champions crowned in the Men's and Women's Longboard, Men's 35+, 40+, 50+, the Women's 35+, and the Men's and Women's Bodyboard. 

Full report to follow.
