WELL DONE KARMA
FIJI Surfing Association president John Philp praised the courageous effort of youngster Alifereti Kamanalagi in a rough and windy sea condition at the Quiksilver ISA World Junior Surfing Championships at Piha Beach in New Zealand.
Kamanalagi, commonly known as Kama, was the first Fijian to participate at the world championship.
He missed qualificationfor the final stages by a single point.
The 15-year-old lad from Nadroga proved his worth against other top surfersfrom around the world.
Philp said Kama performed extremely well despite the rough sea at Piha Beach last week.
He said the trip was a huge learning experience for the youngster.
“I’m extremely proud of his performance,” Philp said.
“He was a great surfer and he showed tremendous courage, which pulled him through in such a dangerous sea at Piha beach.”
