PAGE 20 Wednesday April 18 2018 BAY HARBOUR Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi Strong results for local surfers as winter sets in Aaron Lock reports on the Canterbury men’s champs results at the weekend and the grom series THE FIVE days of southerlies last week were a shock to the system but the silver lining was the pumping waves we had over the weekend. Friday and Saturday saw perfect lines marching into Sumner and in spite of the cold temperatures, it was very busy in the water. The change from 2mm to 4mm wetsuits in just a week took a bit of adjusting to as well. The water temperature is around 14 • By Gordon Findlater THE SUMNER wave is rolling after they notched their second win from as many outings in the Hawkins Metro Premier Cup. But problems at first-five could lead to an interesting brand of rugby being employed going into busy period of fixtures. Saturday’s 36-27 bonus point win over Marist Albion at Edgar MacIntosh Park put Sumner joint top of the competiton on 10 points with defending champions Lincoln University. Going into the match Sumner were already without regular first-five Nik Cummings who could be facing surgery on an injured foot. Matters were made Aaron's Surf Report deg C which is about average for mid-April. The only problem with an epic hot summer is we’ve become too soft for a normal Christchurch autumn. The South Island Grom series finished off in Kaikoura a few weeks back. Local surfers battled worse when Josh Toy – who has been impressive in the No 10 jersey – suffered a concussion after landing from an awkward tackle. Sumner were also without a proven first-five on their bench due to division two regular Zack Grey falling ill. So, when Toy came off coach Martin Dodgson found himself in a pickle. It was former New Brighton winger/centre Filimoni Waqainabete (right) who ended up coming off the bench to slot in a first-five, raising eyebrows . “You should have seen the opposition 10, he looked up and went what the f***,” said Dodgson. The Canterbury sevens player wasted no time showing he had the skill set to slot into the playmaking role by setting up a try with a well weighted chip through the defence after a scrum on the Marist 10 metre line. How Dodgson came up with SPORTS some big and challenging conditions at Meatworks over the weekend. Jack Tyro won the under-12 boys and won the overall series title undefeated over four contests. Jordan Sparrow was fourth in Kaikoura and finished the series second overall in the under-18 boys. Ava Henderson continued her great run winning the under-14 girls and winning the series as well. Holly Campbell put in a great performance to come fourth in the under-14 girls and second in the under-12 girls and achieved the same placings in the series. Eden Hungerford won the under-12 girls in Kaikoura and sister Estella was second in the under-18 girls. Local boardriders club, Point Surf Team, were third overall in the South Island Grom series which is a great achievement. Well done to all the PST groms. PST is making a come back. One quiet achiever on the national contest scene this year has been Sumner’s Thomas Harcourt. Thomas has been getting some great results in both the open and under-20 divisions in the national series. Thomas was fourth at the South Island champs in Dunedin and is sitting fifth on the national junior ratings with two events to go. This weekend will see the national series come closer to home with the Exit Surf Canterbury men’s surf champs kicking off on Saturday. The event will find the best waves between Taylors Mistake and Gore Bay. •Aaron Lock is the Sumner Learn to Surf school principal director Sumner gets off to perfect Hawkins Cup start the ingenuous idea to play the powerful Fijian at first-five has been the talk about town. Some have even claimed to have witnessed straws being drawn. However, Dodgson has put these rumours to bed claiming to have taken a more holistic approach. “I said who wants to play 10 and he said ‘I will’ so I said ‘sweet, done’.” Sumner’s new tackle breaker turned playmaker could prove pivotal in their upcoming home stand at St Leonards Park. They host last year’s beaten finalists on Saturday before playing Burnside on Anzac Day. The biggest test of all then comes on Saturday April 29 when they play Lincoln University.
