Almost one year ago to the day, we (SPONSURF) were lucky enough to be involved with the first ever Lost Cove Festival. Below is a brief outline of our weekend which hopefully will encourage you to pile into the minibuses and head down to this years' event!

Here at SPONSURF we take an interest far beyond that of just running surf trips for university groups. Having run clubs, ourselves, we understand the hardships of being 'the little guy' to the snowsport societies; often doing so without any funding; feeling like there is a constant battle with the uni unions and the difficulties trying to organise a UK surf trip when the closest break can be hours away and potentially flat. So, with this in mind, we set about trying to find some alternatives to keep you all going during term time. Drum roll please...

Red Bull Unleashed 2015 and the Future of UK Surf Competitions

This weekend I witnessed a part of surfing history. And no it wasn’t at Pipe, or Cloud Break, or J-Bay, but in the tiny village of Dolgarrog, north Wales.  It was here that crowd favourite Albee Layer stormed to a victory over 24 of the top free and completion surfers about, in the first ever stadium surf competition miles away from the ocean.
