CHRISTCHURCH
Check out some of the surfing snaps from the 2023 MALFUNCTION Longboarding Competition, which took place at New Brighton Beach in Christchurch on February 18 and 19.

The competition was hosted by New Brighton Longboarders Club, which is my home surf club. It was great to see some fellow South Island tradies getting amongst the waves and competing.
You’ll spot NZCB branding in one of the photos, placed in for good measure, and the ‘NZCB EXIT Surf goodies bag,’ containing a couple of blocks of NZCB branded wax, a comb, and a hooded poncho towel. This was sponsored by NZCB and awarded to one of the winners of the raffle draw.
This event marked its 30th anniversary and attracted a topnotch line-up including three current men’s and women’s national longboard title holders, and a former New Zealand representative who finished 31st at the World Champs a few years back.
The level of longboarding did not disappoint, and it was epic to see NZCB branding at the event.
