Can Too East Swim training Sat 15 Nov 2008

Bondi dished out chilly conditions for Can Too East Swim's second Saturday surf training session. View photos of Can Too East team training hard on Picasa.


Team Captain Susan (Kingy) says of the team's effort...
"...it is just wonderful as some of these guys have never been in the surf and already after two weeks they are porpoising, they are running into the surf and out of the surf AND they have huge smiles in their faces !!!"

Well put Kingy, and great effort Can Too East!
