The early Saturday morning sky was blanketed by grey clouds with swell leaving a bit to be desired, but the Thomas Bexon Surf Demo has begun. Despite the

conditions folks lined up, wetsuits on, grinning from ear to ear ready to test out a log.

First splashes were made at 7am with grommets and dolphins alike sharing the swell for nose riding all morning.

Boards to test, $2 coffees and free pastries all day, what better way to spend a Saturday morning, and the perfect way to end our Deus Manly Opening weekend.

Thank you to all those who came along and to those that helped make the official opening such a success.
