2 Channel Island Team members make Eurosurf Finals 2011
Ben Skinner, European Longboard Champion in 2009, is in a consecutive Eurosurf Finals in Ireland tomorrow along with Ben Chapman in the Senior Men's category.
The longboard event will start at 12.30 tomorrow with the Senior Men's starting at 1.10pm. Finals will be held either at Tullan or Bundoran depending on tomorrow's swell. Magic seaweed is forecasting 4ft at 9 seconds with variable winds. Looks like like some nice rideable waves and good conditions.

Both Ben's are experienced in competitive surfing and have surfed extremely well to beat Europe's top surfers and make it into the finals. They will judge the conditions tomorrow and with their coach Roley McMichael draw up their game plan. Both competitors will be judged on their best 2 waves.
The JSC wish them the best of luck! (Some nice set waves in their direction!)
