Joe Way board getting a run out

Local international surf champion Ben Skinner, has given his backing to a charity event in Newquay for the second year running.

Ben, also known in the surfing world as “Skindog”, the number 2 in the world surfing games and the European professional longboard champion will be supporting the “Joe Way Paddle for Life Event” on September 23rd.

“Skindog” donated a surfboard at last year’s paddle which raised over £1200.00 and this year the surfing-pro has donated the services of his surf school to provide high end surf lessons for a lucky beginner or experienced surfer.

Ben said, “It’s been a privilege to support Joe’s charity paddle and help Matt who has been stoked to get the board and the fact he is promoting his son’s story using a SKINDOG board is also a really honour”.
