2026 Junior Wavefest

 
Albany Boardriders Junior Wavefest just keeps getting bigger and better, with the competition being held at #middsreef, Middleton Beach, this year, celebrating the first competition on the new artificial surf reef.
 
Members were subjected to squalls and some rain, but it did not dampen the spirit of everyone as the beach put on waves throughout the day. The reef bubbled over in the morning with remnants of the previous day's swell, but the majority of the surf was on the inside. it held good shape right through to the last final. 
 
Big thanks to the crew that maintained the canteen keeping everyone one well fed and watered, and to all that helped set up and break down the event. And thanks to Alice Reddington for her great photos.
 
Albany Boardriders will be holding the Open Wavefest next on the long weekend 30th and 31st May, and 1st of June.
