News Ben Haworth dominates Hotdoggers


Devon junior wraps it up in difficult conditions by Howard Swanwick

04/09/2006:// The ‘Underdog’ event aimed at club members who don’t make the top ten in the clubs main league was held on Saturday and won by the club president Norman Wright.

The 3rd league event was run on the following day in very testing stormy surf conditions. The clubs hottest talent, Ben Haworth dominated the event to win it convincingly with a display of surfing that was spectacular despite the difficult surf. Huge carving turns and spectacular ‘off the lips’ are becoming Bens trade mark as well as the more traditional longboard moves such as hang fives.

Ben is looking forward to a busy contest schedule during the rest of September and October and is hoping to continue this season’s string of excellent results before taking off abroad for some experience in foreign waves.

The finalists of the 3rd league event left to right (pictured above), OJ Freshwater in 4th place, Ben Haworth in 1st place, Adrian Howell 2nd place, Chris Brunt 3rd place.
