Since Elie told me about the surf contes I been thinking how it was going to be like until the day came for the performance.
The night was long because I couldn't wait for the day to come.
It was 6:00 clock in the morning when I heard a car hoon, after that I knew that it was time to go to robertsport.
It was My friend from the U.S. Embassy.
On our way up to robertsport, we started this funny conversation.
He asked me, is there's any price for the least participant? After that I just laugh.
When we came to the beach I saw all lot of thing going on, the Nana's was having a party and at the same time we were having a surf, it was feeling great.
I met Elie and Nat and give them a huge hug, because I heard doing the week they were ill with malaria so I was happy to see them on the beach agin.
After that they started getting thing ready for the contest and Nat told me to carry a table to ship wreak.
On my way to ship wreak I saw some guys surfing already at cotton three, so I was trying to fegure out who were those untill I found out it was Keath, Mashuel and some other guys.
The waves was looking nice at ship wreak, I had that exaggerated feeling By looking at those waves.
I thougt the ocean was giving us what we needed, when the contest started the waves started getting small but it was still working.
Mashuel, Ealie, Nat and some other peaple were the judges.
First Mashuel started to explain the rules about the surfing contest and after that Keath had to prayed then we started.
The first group pedle out and Keath was the winner.
I was the was the winner of the sencond group, and the third was Afried.
After that Keath and are when for the semifinal, it was great I had my first wave and it was good but small, the second was small as the first.
When I had that one and ride it down to the beach, I saw Keath surfing a very nice wave, he had two as the same size and those waves was bigger than mine, at the movement I knew that he had the chance to wine me.
When Mashuel ring the alame, he said five menines for the time to be over.
I pedle back up and wiated for the wave and the wave never came so Keath had to win.
Than Keath and Afried went for the final, Afried had Keath and he was the winner of the contest.
I was so happy for my man Keath and Afried, we had fun and took picture together.
After the surfing contest Nat and Elie called up the winner and give them their prices, they also said a lot of good things about the surf support in Liberia.
And that was it for the weekend, I forget to sleep there to party too.
I just want to tell Nat and Elie thanks for everything they are doing in Liberia and I pray that God will bless them with more and more support .

Peter: Surfing on the weekend and talking about the surf competition.
In my whole life, I never compete with no body in surfing, I don't even know how it's feel like.
Elie, Math, Mashuel and I went up to Robersport last weekend for a surf.
On our way going, Elie started this conversition about surfing competition and she said it will be done in Robertsport on (November 29, 2009.)
Elie said that, all surfers in Liberia are invited and even if you are not a surfer, you can come and see how surfing is expanding and how good is the surfers in liberia.
I pray for good waves becouse it will be lot of fun.
I believe this is the first surfing competition in Liberia and I also pray for support from in and out of Liberia for this sport that had never been in Liberia for years, with all those awesome waves.
ROBERTSPORT COMUNITY WORKS is making a great positive change in Liberia for tourism and also surfing.
Those pass two weekends was unbeliveble, the waves was great.
The first weekend waves was double over head and glassy, I surf for six hours and doing the evening time we was surfing with lot of dolphin in the water, that real make me feel awe.

Peter: Surfing on the weekend , Meeting with some new guys and Starting first period test at school.
Before the mounth of september Keath told me that some guys was comming to Liberia to do some surf TV show, I was so happy to hear about that.
At the end of september they arived in Liberia and stay about one week in Keath house after that they went up to rebertsport for one week.
The day they arived in rebertsport it was on saterday, I was there but I never talk with them because I thought they needed a rest after a long drives.
so we left that day and come to Monrovia.
The waves on that weekend was small and not so good but we had to surf because we drove a long distance.
Doing the week Keath told me that on thousday will be good to surf in robertsport because big waves was comming in, and I was so happy but I had school so I never went.
On sunday I went up and all those guys told me how good was the waves, how it was breaking, how many feet over head and about all the berries they had.
I felt so bad because I missed that section of surfing but after I went down to cotton tree and started surfing, I was so happy because I could feel those wave that were breaking.
You could see those little waves making tube and by surfing them you could tell how beutiful it was on thousday.
After surfing those waves I went down to ship wreaks and they were still nice and after that I was trying to go see loko.
On my way to Loko I met a guy by the name of Shean, he and Afried was on their way back from there.
He said that he was the photographer of the TV show and he told me how good was the waves in Liberia.
He also said that it will be very good to have a surf team in liberia and some surfing industries because we need more surfer to come and we need those equipment for surfing.
After he got through expleaning, he took some photo of me and handed his surfdoard to me said I should try it out.
The surfboard was (5, 6) it was a very nice board it had four (4) fen and it was very thin.
When I cought the first wave it started moving very fast and on my third one, I had a nice ride and went down to the beachto him.
It was fun ridding his board, I was so happy because of all the good things he told me about surfing.
I believed that few years from now surfing will be one of the bigest sport in Liberia.
I also want to say thanks to Nett and Elie for their great work in Liberia, bescause they are really trying hard to make Liberia well known in the surf world.
School is great, I just started me first period test and I will be through on Friday.
Sometime it is hard when you are in school and all your friends are going to surf, but what to do, I just have to get through with school before surfing.
At the end of september they arived in Liberia and stay about one week in Keath house after that they went up to rebertsport for one week.

Peter: Surfing on the weekend and selling T-shirts, bags and rashguards
www.robertsportcommunityworks.org is selling T-shirts and a rashguards. The T-shirt and the rashgard is nice with SURFLIBERIA logo on the front of it and it is a very nice cotton.
I like it because it says something about my country Liberia and it is also suportting the Liberian surfer and making the people of Liberia to know more about the sport.
Believe me, I take it with me every where I go and every where I surf.
Lot of people asked me what the surf on the T-shirt means, I can tell them that it is one of the new sports in Liberia, then I will show them some photo of a surfer ridding a wave and start to explain how you do it.
Surfing was great this weekend, those waves were small but they were clean and nice.
Elie had some nice rides, she is getting very good, she never use to ride those type of waves she was ridding on last weekend, she was challenging them.
We were surfing at Shipwrecks, Marshall had some nice berrieds, he came back up and said it was yelling at him and he will show the example.
After surfing Shipwrecks, I came back to Cotton Trees and surf with Taya and some of her friends, I talk to them about the waves and how to ride it.
It was fun, Taya had some nice rides, she is getting good.
I was surfing at Cotton Trees and I saw Nate and Elie comming from surfing Shipwrecks, he told me that he lost one of his fins, I was try to tell him sorry and he said that I brought the bad luck because I have lost about three of my feans from surfing, but he was kidding.
It is bad if you lost those things in Liberia because you can't find them here.
On my NSP surf board I have a right fins on the left side because I lost it and had a right one.
After surfing we had source, fish and rice for lunch because the Nana's was open, I was so hungry after surfing for 5 hours so I ate a lot, then came back to Monrovia.
We had a little bad luck because one of my friend Sergei lost his water cam in the water, and he said that some guys was fishing right next to him with a net, so he tell them they will catch a camera but it was fun surfing on a new board.

Peter: Robertsport weekend session
The waves was not very good on weekend because the wind was too high, but we have fun surfing them.
The first wave I had was fun, I made a turn up and down two time and turn back to the white and the wave was gone.
The first time I try my new board, it felt a little faster then my other one and it turn faster and I like it.
I think I will try the 360 move and have a nice air time soon wish out for that.
It was little bad on the side of the food because the Nana's was closed so there was no food but I had like three coconut and after that I went for the afternoon sessoin.
After that we started for monrovia and that was the day.

Peter: Getting berried at Loco
I tryin to get in to this berried on this wave but it refused to break over my head, I was surfing at Loco and sometime those wave get very big. I never knew the important of geting berried in a wave untill I had one at Loco and it was one of my best wave I ever surf, now I want to time the wave everytime I go out get berried.
Elie and Nate give me about six chikens and two ducks to rise, They started eating some wheat yesterday. One died from the heat in the bag but it was lot of fun catching them yesterday. I think we will have lot of chikens and duck soon, we just have to wait for them to have eggs and make more babies and we will be able to have a little party.

Peter: Breaking my board in Robertsport
This is Keith and I at Robertsport beach -- the guy that buoght the NSP 6'2" board for me.
One day we went out there to surf and those waves was like 7-8 feet, glassy and the day was bright. I took my two board in Robertsport and one of my board broke because the waves was heavy and now I have only one board and this worry me everytime I go out to surf because if the last board happens to break I will have no board to surf with.
