2013 Christian Skaters and Christian Surfers Roadshow

  1. 2013 Christian Skaters and Christian Surfers Roadshow

    Mossel Bay

    The Poker Run, sponsored by Sector 9, saw skaters tearing up the 2km loop around Diaz Beach with hopes of face cards and aces. This skate event was purely about fun and luck as skaters stopped 5 times along the route to collect a poker card and build their hand. Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Sector 9 and Element, all of the skaters walked away with a prize in their hand and a smile on their face!

    George

    With an amazing turnout, we started with a Jesus Triple Tier skate comp at the Skate Lab, with skaters coming from far. The skies threatend rain, but the Lord held the clouds over the mountains so we could enjoy a spectacular day skating and ending with a Poker run leading the way to Hope Church, where we ended showing the pre-release of the movie The Perfcet Wave.  Below are some pics of this unforgettable event.  You can go check out more pics of George HERE

  2. Fire Starter Gathering 2014 Highlights

    April 15, 2014 by Chris van der Merwe

    Highlights from CS Fire Starter Conference 28 – 31 March 2014 at Potters Place, Jeffrey’s Bay. We had an incredible time of skate, surf, fun, fellowship action! Our prayer is that everyone who attended was inspired by the EXTRAORDINARY God that we serve who uses the ordinary and the unlikely to be fire starters for His Kingdom!

    Below are some pics with quotes from a survey taken on the speakers….

    BRADLEY JONES – CHRISTIAN SKATERS NATIONAL DIRECTOR

    “What a legend!!loved it! so inspiring and challenging to do more and push harder! really appreciate how real and down to earth he is! really feel like i can make a difference after listening to him”

    “Again so inspirational to watch these men that put their hands up and say yes Lord I will serve you
    I like how Brad really dug deep”

     

    FLOYD McCLUNG – All Nations

    “It was really cool to see how someone as well known as Floyd and as well experienced would come talk to a couple of skaters and surfers. I really liked the question and answers when it was interactive with Floyd, I thought he gave very well rounded answers and even answered unasked questions.”

    “Life changing to say the least! so much experience and wisdom flows out when he speaks and it was a honour to meet and listen to such a legend in the faith!!”

    BRETT DAVIS – Christian Surfers International Director

    “AMAZING!!!!! challenged me in ways i can’t even explain! really encouraged and pushed me to get something going! which i have been doing!”

    “Loved his first talk about holy discontent & passions”
