“East Coast turns it on for L.U.S.T.ing sufers”
NAME OF EVENT: L.U.S.T Chocolate Barrels Surf Challenge
DATE OF EVENT: Sunday 8th June, 2008
LOCATION: SCAMANDER RIVERMOUTH, Scamander
On Sunday, Cameron Whitlen (Gold Coast, QLD) claimed the L.U.S.T Chocolate Barrels Surf Challenge, which was held at Scamander Rivermouth. After scoring a gnarley barrel ride in the final, posting a score of 7.5 out of 10 he sealed the victory to beat James Mc Kean (Marion Bay, TAS) by 2.5 points.
“It was a pretty close final, I chose to sit on the inside closer to the shore to catch the waves that were breaking better on the sand bar. James got a really good wave early on (in the final) but was unlucky to land his 360 floater. I think if he landed that, you would be talking to him not me.” Said Cameron.
James held the lead for the final for the first 5 minutes of the 20-minute final, but was unable to beat Cameron’s high scoring barrel ride.
“It was really good surf out there and I just couldn’t land a couple of tricks which isn’t a good thing to do in a final. Cameron surfed well all day and I’m stoked to have come second. I think it was a really well run event and I look forward to the next event – The Salty Oyster East Coast Classic, held at the end of July” said James Mc Kean.
Tom Hudson (Gold coast, QLD) took out 3rd place with Guy Mc Clean (Perth, WA) taking out 4th place.

“L.U.S.T’s Chocolate Barrels turns Blue?”
“LUSTing for the sunny East Coast.”
NAME OF EVENT: L.U.S.T Chocolate Barrels Surf Challenge
DATE OF EVENT: Sunday 8th June, 2008
LOCATION: SCAMANDER RIVERMOUTH, Scamander*
BEST TIME TO FILM/INTERVIEW: 9.30 – 11.00 am
*The event is a mobile event and can be moved within 20km from Scamander depending on the conditions. Please ring Hamish Wilkinson (Event Organiser) on 0408 144 565 for further information on the day.
Key Angles:
ß Uni Club defying student club trends with V.S.U
ß Chocolate Barrels turns Blue (competition moving from the North Coast to the East Coast)
ß Themed around Lust
ß The Surfrider Foundation Australia Beach Clean-up
A group of Young University of Tasmania and Australian Maritime College students have pulled together to strike a balance between surfing and studying and have started a student club with a difference.
“Our first surfing event, the Chocolate Barrels Surf Challenge was planned to be held at Tam ‘O’ Shanter Bay between the 17th of May – 8th of June, but the weather has been beautiful over the last couple of weeks. Because of the nice weather there hasn’t been any swell, so we going to hold the competition down the East Coast on Sunday the 8th at Scamander Rivermouth.” Said Andy Hartley, President of L.U.S.T
“Tam ‘O’ Shanter Bay produces some really good waves on its day, but this time of year it can be difficult to predict the swell. On the other hand, the surf on the East Coast has been “going off” lately. So it makes sense to hold the competition in the best possible waves” Said Hamish Wilkinson, L.U.S.T Event Organiser.
“A lot of students have been studying quite hard with exams just around the corner, so this competition is going to be a great opportunity to put down the books take some time off, catch some great waves and discuss exam techniques with fellow students”. Said Andy Hartley, President of L.U.S.T

A group of young University of Tasmania and Australian Maritime College students have pulled together to strike a balance between surfing and studying and have started a student club with a difference.
“L.U.S.T started in February this year, to help students from all around Australia and the world, who have come here to study, to get away from the books and experience the stunning wilderness and awesome surf Tasmania has to offer.” Said Andy Hartley, President of L.U.S.T.
“With a club like this, it easy to find someone to go surfing with, cut down on petrol costs and if you want, talk about a difficult assignment” Said Andy Hartley, President of L.U.S.T
The Launceston University Surf Team will be holding three multi-facet surf competitions in the next few months to make sure students are getting enough “down-time”.
“We are catering for all water enthusiast who are studying at the University of Tasmania and Australian Maritime College, wether you ride a short board, body board or a long board there is a division for you.” said Hamish Wilkinson, L.U.S.T event organiser.
The first surfing competition held at Tam O Shanter Bay in recent history, The Chocolate Barrels Challenge will be held either on a Saturday or a Sunday between the 17th of May - 8th of June.
“The Northern coastline of Tasmania offers great waves for surfers, but the conditions need to be right for good waves, hence the reason why we have a four week swell window.” Said Andy Hartley, President of L.U.S.T.
On the day of the competition L.U.S.T will be working with The Surfrider Foundation Australia to do a beach clean up.
“Surfers are as guilty as anyone else when it comes to leaving rubbish on the beach, and this competition is a great opportunity for them for give something back to the local community. Its great to be able to get together and hold a surfing competition, but we need to be responsible for the condition of the surrounding environment.” Said Peter Whish-Wilson from The Surfrider Foundation Australia.
