If your a surfer or just love being by the sea, Then this will be of interest to you..
SAS have been doing a great job for years, By cleaning beaches and promoting awareness of pollution of the sea..
Check out and support the cause today.
Sign the Save our Waves Petition..
Here is what SAS have to say..
"The Protect Our Waves (POW) campaign specifically promotes the protection of surf spots, recognising the environmental, social, cultural and economic benefits of surfing resources, and represents the surfing community to government, developers and other coastal stakeholders. The campaign aims to protect surf spots from unacceptable levels of environmental impact, degradation of surfing wave quality and to advance recreational water users right of access.
British surfing waves are under threat from a growing number of activities around our coastline that could destroy or have long-term devastating impact on some of our most prized surfing beaches. This includes coastal developments, pollution, and restricted access.
Waves are an important and necessary part of the workings of our planet. Surfing beaches and waves also have a deep personal value to surfers and surfing communities around the UK. However, in the UK there is currently no specific legal protection for surfing waves or any assurance that stakeholders, including surfers and surfing communities in Wales, Northern Ireland or England, will be consulted fairly on activities threatening their existence. Other sports and activities such as walking and sailing are formally recognised, represented and consulted during many new development processes. Other areas of outstanding beauty and countryside sites are also protected. But politicians, developers and the wider public in general have very little knowledge of the value, uniqueness and finite nature of surfing waves taking into account the unique geological and climatic conditions required to produce good quality surfing waves.
Surfing has grown into a well establish sport, culture and an important industry in the UK. However, many still wrongly perceive surfing as an unimportant sub-culture and fail to fully respect surfers or recognise surfers’ concerns, particularly on environmental and resources issues that affect them directly.
Surfers come from all walks of life: lawyers, doctors and businessmen sit in the line up next to tradesmen, students and professional athletes. Good quality surf spots and popular surfing communities help support local economies and have a positive impact on society; natural assets and benefits that need to be further quantified, promoted and protected."

Last Friday at SNO!park Milton Keynes was the return of the every popular Who's Afraid of the Park coaching event.
Freestyle Skiers and Boarders of all abilities flocked to SNO!park Mk to get some freestyle tips from some of the UKs top riders.
The event was a great success and the slope was packed with all levels of riders.
At each feature was a SNO!zone freestyle coach and at least one of there sponsored team members providing on the spot coaching to everyone who passed through.
The park was designed for all abilities with plenty of easier rider on features which are perfect for learning and perfecting tricks , as well as some tougher bigger features like the rainbow and side hit gas pipes..
Jools Smith has taken some great photos which can been seen on his Flickr page.. SEE THEM HERE.
If you attended the night and would like to leave some feedback to the coaches or would like to keep upto date with SNO!zone events then why not visit the Facebook page..
On Friday the 13th of July, Castleford Sno!Zone will host a host a snowboard session which will pit shredders against a unique course designed in a collaboration between Jonny Russell, Tom Guilmard, Will Smith and Thrashmore.
They will build the closest approximation we can to a skate bowl on a downhill slope. The course includes TRANNYS, gaps, jibs, hits and burmed corners (see picture!).
There will be no registration, no bibs, no entrance fee and no start marshalls. win CASH for snowboarding like a BOSS! Choose your line and impress the judges with clean riding and 'out of the box' thinking and win a grubby fiver right there and then!
They will have three judges. If two judges give your run a nod, you get that fiver on the spot. A couple of decent lines and your petrol is paid for. A few decent runs and so are the beers! Riders are not against each other, rather all are against the course. The judges will especially favour new lines and different gaps or stepping up the tricks. if you take the same line as the guy before you only need to throw in a spin over that gap to keep the cash rolling.
With 500 quid donated by the rad guys at Monster, in used, non-sequential (untraceable) five pound notes, the cash prizes will become available as soon as the first rider drops in. Because the features are likely to take a beating, there will be no warm up and the comp is done when we either run out of prizes, the course falls down or the world ends.
Because of the format, its up to you guys how you go. If the course turns into a texas deathmatch, the judges will do their best to watch as much as possible, but some stuff might get missed. It will be RAD though!
Also, the event is to be covered by The Reason Magazine and we will have filmers and photographers literally everywhere, so as well as winning STUFF, we can make you famous for snowboarding dangerously.
**IF YOU ARE GOING TO TRY SOMETHING MENTAL, MAKE SURE THAT THE JUDGES ARE WATCHING ... OR AT LEAST THE CAMERA GUYS**
Stomp something extra gnarly to win a special spot prize. we have Lobster boards, hoodies and tshirts, dalikfodda hats and tshirts and some awesome Vans product and 32 outerwear! Do something lame to win a scotch egg or a porn magazine (a copy of forty plus, kindly donated by jamie nicholls).
The top rider over the whole night will win the "best tranny 2012" award, which is likely to be a shit 80s trophy in fake gold and marble. DAMN!!
They will update the event over the coming days as we have some even more extra special stuff planned, so watch this space for extra prize categories for EUROCARVING and hopefully getting a band on the snow during the event.
