Cribbar 12 January 2009

By Tony • January 12, 2009

Late this afternoon, with a crowd on the headland and 1 rather knowing seal in the water, 2 plastic PWCs trundled around a Newquay headland and Ben Skinner tried out a brand new SkinDog tow board. Word is, “its a beauty”. Photos and more to come in Pit Pilot soon
