Cold Water Classic 08 - Day 1 part 1

The majestic seaward Kaikouras were capped with snow, which lent a chill to the air for the whole weekend, but a brillaint blue sky for the first 2 days kept the temps over freezing. This is the Kaikoura Boardriders' Cold Water Classic.

Below the longboard heats warmed me up just nice :0)

this is only half of the photos that I have for day 1, so there will be a second post coming in the next day. I wish I cold write more, but I have so much work on, that I haven't stopped since I got back from Kaiks.
