The guys over at iBodyboard sent in the following announcement on the addition to their sponsored team.
“Australia’s newest online Bodyboarding Store ibodyboard.com.au is please to announce that Central Coast grommet Matty Guignon has joined the ibodyboard team. Matty is one of the strongest grommet competitors in Australia and has been pushing the limits for the past two years around Copacabana and the Central Coast. We are stoked to have him on the team and he is surely one to watch out for in the up and coming ranks at the Soldiers Beach Pro in April. It’s pretty competitive amongst these young guys on the coast and Matty has been charging in his local South Central Coast comps.
Check out Matty and our team riders at www.ibodyboard.com.au”

ACS Core Store went up in Flames yesterday leaving the bodyboard stockist with little to salvage from the ashes. The following comes from ABC news.
Fire authorities say it will be difficult to determine the cause of a fire which has destroyed two businesses at Nowra.
The fire began in a motorcycle shop and was well alight when NSW Fire Brigade and Rural Fire Service crews arrived about 1:30pm (AEDT) yesterday.
The fire in a building off the Princes Highway near the Stockland Shopping Centre quickly spread to an adjacent surf shop, destroying motorcycles and surfboards.
The damage bill has been estimated at $1.4 million.
Inspector Paul Johnson from the NSW Fire Brigade says the building will have to be demolished.
“The building was very unstable, we had partial collapse of the building, we had a collapse of the roof while we were on the scene, that happened very early, all other walls were buckling, so the building will be coming down,” he said.
