Las Cuevas Beach Cleanup a Success!

MYSTIC HEMP and SURFING TNT teamed up for a beach cleanup at Las Cuevas. Although the turnout was a little lacking, the effort by the attendees really made up for it. We were able to fill up the tray of my Hilux 4 times with the amount of rubish removed from the beach.

Amoung those in attendance were SURFING TNT head judge JOHN TORREY and his kids. Seen here in the photo are Keith Lewis (SURING TNT president) and TROY HADEED (MYSTIC HEMP founder and owner).

As an added bonus, as if rewarding us for our effort, the BOWL at the end of the beach turned on all day and provided excellent relief in the form of head high, clean, grinding lefts and rights! An awesome day all round.

We hope that ALL members of SURFING TNT will make the effort to attend and participate in our next beach cleaning venture!


ALAN DAVIS IS THE 2007 SURFER OF THE YEAR!

Better late than never...CONGRATULATIONS TO ALAN DAVIS ! on being the SURFINGTNT SURFER OF THE YEAR 2007! He is seen here collecting his trophy at our AGM.
For those who made the effort to be there, we were suprised and moved by an unexpected speech from ALAN that was very genuine and included him thanking all the surfers in Trinidad for keeping him motivated and being the reason he keeps doing what he's doing...




ALAN was also CSN overall champion for 2007...KEEP IT UP ALAN!
