Charlotte resident yoga master<br />
at Bondi SUP strikes a pose with<br />
Pipe master Gerry Lopez<br />
WHAT’S SUP WITH YOUR<br />
DOWNWARD DOG?<br />
Yoga masters of Sydney’s eastern and southern<br />
suburbs can now take to the water to attain<br />
their perfect state of spiritual insight and<br />
tranquility. Both Cronulla Standup Paddleboard<br />
School and Bondi Standup Paddleboard School<br />
are now running standup paddleboard yoga<br />
classes.<br />
Both discipines are recognised as being<br />
great for building better balance, flexibility,<br />
coordination, endurance and strength. By<br />
combining the two, the benefits are said to be<br />
even better.<br />
Former Hawaiian world champ surfer Gerry<br />
Lopez couldn’t resist a pose when he was<br />
recently in town visiting Todd and the team at<br />
Bondi SUP. The lovely Charlotte, resident yoga<br />
master, took him through his poses.<br />

ROLLICKING WRECKS<br />
Now in its eighth year, the Noosa Malibu<br />
Club’s Wrecks and Relics annual over-50’s<br />
longboarding event is booked for the<br />
weekend of 23-24 June.<br />
This year includes a new division - the<br />
over-69 age group, for those old farts that<br />
still have it in them.<br />
“It’s a gruelling two-day event of non-stop<br />
action, as we try to remember how we<br />
did it when we started riding the waves<br />
in the 50’s.” says spokesrelic, Bob Wood.<br />
