Catching the Virtual Wave

Pacific Coast Highway SURF FESTIVAL 2009

Surf Festival 2009

The ground was shaking on PCH 1 Nov 1st. It was at least 8.0 on the richter scale. It wasnt an earthquake but SL Def Leppard rocking Festival goers. The festival opened with a smashing good wipeout session with Followingwaves, Mick and Bodhi thrown in for good measure.

Leogarto Burt gave a facinating informative speach highlighting his contribution to second life surfing with his numerious products in cluding his latest wave Teahoopu II. Rezzing the various waves above the stage the Teahoopu II took the crowds breath away with is folding tube.

VW Sands spoke next. His speach began respectfully requesting a moment of silence for our fallen brother “Cippy” Cipriano Grut. VW spoke of the future and reigniting the stoke and soul, getting back to our roots and having fun. The crowd howled in agreement.

The surfboard art decorating contest prizes were determined by popular vote the winners were:

1st place, Shark Attack – Angelle Aluveau 33 votes 1000L$
