DAY 1 BUCS Surf Champs

Jason Feast

17th October 2014

Jason spent the first four years of his life in Indonesia then lived on the Tropical islands of Vanuatu and then the UK where he finished his education. With his thirst for travelling and surfing, he spent the next few years globe trotting in search of waves and hasn't really stopped.

A solid swell and strong off shores made for tough conditions at Day 1 of the BUCS surfing competition.

Despite a few rescues and broken boards, the event saw big heat totals and strong surfing from the likes of Rhys Poulton, Chris Kelly and Jamie Banks, all accompanied by the usual student enthusiasm for which BUCS is so well known. Both the swell and wind seem to be  holding strong for tomorrow, which will see the girls and boys round two take to the water.
