Outstanding Achievement in Japan

Congratulations to Club Evans RSL member Deni Boyd on an outstanding achievement at the Japanese National Adaptive Surfing Titles. Deni, a former Evans Head local and Woodburn St Joseph’s School student, has shown incredible determination and resilience by placing 3rd in the finals at the prestigious event held at Shizunami Surfing Stadium, south of Osaka, on 31 May.

Competing against a world-class field of Japanese and international surfers, Deni fought his way into the final four shootout and delivered an impressive final score of 12.93, highlighted by a spectacular left-handed tube ride. His performance demonstrated exceptional skill and competitive spirit on the international stage.

An Inspiring Journey

Following a tragic e-scooter accident that left him a quadriplegic, Deni’s journey is a true inspiration. His courage, perseverance and passion for surfing continue to break barriers and inspire people both at home and around the world. Deni’s commitment to adaptive surfing shows what can be achieved through determination and love for the sport.

Everyone at Club Evans RSL is incredibly proud of Deni’s achievement. He has represented Australia, his community, and adaptive surfing with such distinction. His success at this prestigious international competition highlights the strength and resilience that defines our local community.

Please join us in congratulating Deni on this remarkable result. His story reminds us all of the power of perseverance and the importance of pursuing our passions, regardless of the obstacles we face. Well done, Deni – your achievement makes us all proud!
