BRITISH BODYBOARD TEAM MANAGER, ALEX LEDBROOKE REPORTS ON BRITAIN’S PERFORMANCE AT THE ISA GAMES.

Well for those of you who didn’t watch our countries best in action at the ISA world surfing games here is a shot of them mixing with some of the locals!

In one of his final Training sessions before the ISA world Bodyboard Games in Gran Canaria, Steve Hall tragically broke his right arm.

Not only are Prisky, Alex Winkworth, Olivia Smedley, Sam Barbyn and Jack Johns all in The World Bodyboard Games right now

Here´s a fresh clip with Porkito (portuguese rider) on Praia do Norte, Nazaré.

Check the action through the lens of tour photog Sacha Specker, captions by Rob Barber.

The 22 year old from just outside San Sebastian in northern Spain made history today with an explosive victory over the worlds best.

With the last two days being lay days, I’ve been chilling with the other magazine editors and photog’s that are here. We’ve been down lava tunnels, driven round volcano’s, been driven around a banana plantation in the back of a tractor with Mike Stewart and co (all fairly surreal), as well as had some fun waves at St Leu.
