MUIZENBERG

Seeking solution for parkNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A fence may go up around MuizenbergPark, if the R750 000 funding required to

install it can be obtained.The fence is a reaction to increasing inci-

dents of vagrancy and crime at the park,says subcouncil chairperson Felicity Pur-chase.Reports of vagrancy, theft, theft out of mo-

tor vehicles, damage to property in the parkas well as to private property – such as carsparked in the area – and aggressive beggingare just some emanating from the park, Pur-

chase says. The initial quote to fence thepark at the back and on the side of CampRoad came in at just under R750 000. Thefencewill not be installed opposite theMuiz-enberg Police station, but thismay be fencedat a later date, she says.Muizenberg Police spokesperson Captain

StephenKnapp says there have been reportsof drug abuse in the park.“Muizenberg police do not receive many

complaints, but we do however on a regularbasis conduct searches of persons loiteringin the park. Recently two suspects were ar-rested for being in possession of narcoticsand a third suspect, a juvenile, was found to

be in possession of cannabis,” he says.The police have thrown their weight be-

hind the efforts to fence in the park, Knappsays.“Muizenberg police support the idea of

fencing the parkaswebelieve itwould assistwith the reduction of criminal activities inthe park,” he says.Friends of Muizenberg Park chairperson

Nicci Giles says the organisation recognisesthat there are pros and cons to fencing thespace.“The park is currently an underutilised,

but important green node in the broadercommunity and we are excited that the City

has shown its willingness to invest in thepark through building relationships withvarious interest groups, supporting the com-munity’s creation of a FreedomGarden, pro-viding children’s holiday groups and theConcert in the Park. The City Parks depart-ment works hard to try to keep the parkclean and this is supported by Friends workgroups,” she says.The organisation envisions the parkbeing

used by all of the community as a “space forchildren to play in and people to enjoy relax-ing under the trees or exploring the pathsup to the mountain”, says Giles.V Continued on page 3

Weaving for a better futureNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

TheCapeTownSociety for theBlind (CTSB)is joining forces with local government toinvigorate the niche skills of cane andmate-rial weavers.The joint initiative by the CTSB and the

City of CapeTown to introduce an incentivescheme for blind cane and other materialweavers has seen a dramatic increase inproductivity. This is set to benefit theweav-ers and satisfy local retailers and the touristclientele, says Melanie Daniels, fund-rais-ing professional of the CTSB.“The City has partnered with CTSB as

part of an Expanded Public Works Pro-gramme (EPWP) investing in enterprise de-velopment for the next three months,” saysDanielsThere are 50 cane and other material

weavers employed at the CTSB premises inSaltRiver. “It is a superb schemewhichactsas an incentive to increase productivity,and we have already seen a 30% upswing,”says Lizelle van Wyk, chief executive offi-cer of the CTSB.“The cane and other material weaving is

produced by visually impaired craftsmenand have gained international recognitionfor the past 86 years. They are available atlocal retailer outlets and also at the organicfood market in the Victoria and Alfred Wa-terfront. The finished products of the smallbusiness units are marketed by CTSB andsold to the public, and immediately theyreap the benefit.”The weaving project was chosen to suit

a number of blind and visually impaired in-dividuals who operate their small business-

es from CTSB premises, Daniels says. “Weprovide them with the infrastructure andthe raw materials. Each team member hasbetween five and 10 years experience inweaving, which lends expert support to therespective projects. CTSB prides itself onthe fact that our weavers are specialists intheir respective fields.”Aweaver’s nest in theCompany’sGarden

constructed by theCTSB entrepreneurs hasalso caught the eye at the Chelsea flowershow, she says. “We have many projects.One that stands out is the nests that we pro-duce regularly. These nests can be seen inthe Company Gardens and various restau-rants. PorkyHeffer is a designer and specif-ically contracted CTSB to produce this spe-cial product based on our expertise and at-tention to detail.”CTSB also runs a project that concen-

trates on other material weaving, Danielssays. “These amazing professionals workon material weaving looms and every oneof our items are designed and handmade lo-cally. All our products are available in ourshowroomat CTSB premises in Salt River.”“The project has improved the livelihood

of each small business unit while at thesame time inspiring and encouraging them.“Their passion and interest has once

again been revived. At CTSB we are in fullsupport of the EPWP project. Everyonereaps the benefits – once again underliningthe fact that when one gives, more is re-ceived. We hope that the City will continueto fund this project for as long as possible,keeping our people in a better financial po-sition and also encouraging them to contin-ue with their passion,” she says.V Visit www.ctsb.co.za or call 021 448 4302.

A partnershipbetween the City ofCape Town and theCape Town Societyfor the Blind is setto improve the livesof the 50 cane andother materialweavers employedat the CTSBpremises in SaltRiver.

As inshore shark season has come to aclose, beachgoers are reminded of the re-

vised schedule for the deployment of sharkspotters at beaches during winter.During this period, the exclusion net and

the boat used for the deployment will alsoundergo the necessarymaintenance in prep-aration for September.Overall, there were 92 shark sightings

across all eightFalseBaybeachesduring the2015/2016 summer season, which is lowerwhen compared with previous years. Therewere 142 shark sightings during the2014/2015 summer.

The presence of white sharks in False Bayfluctuates annually and this is most likelydue to the dynamic nature of the natural en-vironment, such as the changing averagewater temperatures and changing prey re-sources.

Muizenberg and Fish Hoek had the high-est number of shark sightings, with 33 and24 respectively,which is consistentwithpre-vious years.In 70% of the shark sightings, water users

were present at the time of the shark sight-ing and on 67% of the occasions the beachwas cleared. Not all shark sightings resultin beach closures – this only occurs wherethe sharkposes a threat to the safety ofwaterusers.During the summer season, the shark ex-

clusion net was deployed a total of 101 times.Deployments, which are largely dependenton weather conditions, were focused onweekends, public holidays and school holi-days. The exclusion net has proven to be aneffective shark safety measure by creatinga physical barrier that prevents sharks fromentering the bathing area.

The Fish Hoek shark exclusion net will bedeployed again for the annual Fish HoekSpring Splash in September.

City’sMaycomember for energy, environ-mental and spatial planning, councillor Jo-han van der Merwe, explains: “The exclu-sion net is not deployed in winter. Beachgo-ers need to be aware of the changes indeployment of the shark spotters as of Tues-day 3 May. The public are reminded thatduringwinter no shark spotterswill be oper-ating at the seasonal beaches of Glencairn,Clovelly andMonwabisi until 30 September,as well as at the Hoek, Noordhoek, between1 June and 31 August. Shark spotters will,however, continue to operate on Fish Hoek,St James/Kalk Bay, Muizenberg and theCaves in Kogel Bay, from 08:00 to 18:00 dur-ing winter.”V For any questions, members of the public are encour-aged to visit the Shark Spotters Info Centre on Muizen-berg Beach, which will be open daily from 08:00 to18:00V For more information on the latest shark sightingsand research, visit www.sharkspotters.org.za

FROM PAGE 1“The park currently faces some chal-lenges including the negative aspectsof people defecating in the bushes oron the paths, throwing waste into theupper reaches and leaving ... drug par-aphernalia lying around, as well ascriminal activity such as breaking in-to cars along the borders of the park.At the moment there are a number ofpeoplewho seem tobe living in thepre-cinct illegally and who have been re-ported to threaten the bowlers and oth-er residents living close to the park,”Giles says.But the organisation has raised the

questionof if a fencewould support thevision of a “shared, well utilised, beau-tiful and safe place for all”.“There are a number of things that

need to be considered in the need for,design and layout of a fence. Any fencewould ideally need to be aestheticallypleasing, durable and easily main-tained, have a number of entrances toallow ease of thoroughfare betweenthe beachfront and the mountainabove, incorporate both the conserva-tion area and the recreation area of thepark, and have someone to lock andopen gates at sunset and sunrise.”A fence in isolationwill not be a solu-

tion, Giles believes, and will not elimi-nate the need for law enforcement, al-though it couldmake enforcement eas-ier. “Solutions could includeimproved lighting, management ofvegetation to increase visibility, footpatrols, better paths through the con-servation area and improved facilitiesin the park to encouragemore positiveuse of the area.”Giles trusts the City will undertake

consultation with stakeholders to“promote more positive use of thespace”.

Sleeping bags for homeless big newsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

The Cape TownLions Club is taking a differ-ent approach to keeping street people warmthis winter.

TheCapeTownmembers, alongwith theirsister club Groote Schuur, has been makingsleeping bags that were created from recy-cled newspapers and polythene bags.

The sleepingbagswill bedistributed to the

homeless in Cape Town.Bags will be donated to the Haven night

shelter in Kensington to hand out to thosewho cannot be accommodated at the premis-es, says Cape Town Lion President JanineFilmer. “The bags are extremely warm.They are also big enough to hold personalbelongings so that they do not get wet. Also,due to the design, the bags can be folded upinto a manageable size.”They are made by taping piles of folded

newspaper to each side of a large polythenebag. This bag is then inserted into anotheridentical bag and the top is sealed. Eachsleeping bag takes approximately 20 min-utes to make, excluding the time it takes tofold the newspaper, and is made by LionsClub members in the Cape Town area.

“The Lions make the bags themselves.Each bag has a label attached to it with thenames of those who constructed it.”V Contact the Cape Town Lions Club at 021 686 4249

The power to protect your streetsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Ryan Morris’ ringing phone in-terrupts his meeting, but even

before he answers, he knows it’ssomeone phoning to report a suspi-cious person or activity.Its par for the course as last

year’s volunteer Auxiliary LawEnforcement officer of the year.Morris, a member of TBKWatch

in Tamboerskloof, joined the re-servist team that supplements theCity of Cape Town’s law enforce-ment officers in 2013.The City of Cape Town’s Auxilia-

ry Law Enforcement Service, afirst in South Africa, allows formembers of the public to registeras volunteers to perform and assistwith law enforcement duties.The officers receive training at

the Metro Police College in theCriminal Procedure Act and othercomponents applicable to their du-ties.The Auxiliary Law Enforcement

officers deal with a range of inci-dents, Morris says, tackling every-thing from vagrancy, theft, carbreak-ins and responding to callsfrom the neighbourhood watchand police.They have the power to arrest, to

carry out stop and searches, aswellas confiscate stolen goods or goodsbeing traded without a permit.Although the main focus is on

enforcing bylaws, the officers arealso obligated to dealwith any seri-ous offence, including theft andpublic fighting.“We’ve caught someone starting

a fire on the mountain before andintervened. We’ve arrested guysfighting. I’ve come across an acci-dent where one of the drivers wasdrunk and behaving riotously andarrested him for being drunk anddisorderly,” he says.Often law enforcement and so-

cial issues gohand-in-hand,Morrissays, and sometimes it is the bestoption to take a softer approach.For instance,Morris has worked

on incidents where homeless peo-ple have been assisted into sheltersand work programmes instead of

being arrested.“If I can justifiablyprevent anar-

rest, I will. Sometimes it’s better tobring the family in than to arrestsomeone,” he says. “There is morepleasure in helping them than inarresting them.”Morris works full-time as an in-

termediate paramedic, while com-pleting an average of 16 hours ofvolunteer Law Enforcement worka month.He always takes his medical

equipment with him on patrol, andhas provided first responder care

while waiting for an ambulance incases of stabbing and car crashes.Whenquestioned about thenum-

ber of hours he puts in between hisfull-time position and his Law En-forcement patrols, Morris shrugsit off.“I don’t like sitting around doing

nothing. I got it from my mom.She’s always been one for work-ing.”Morris’ childhood shapednot on-

ly his work ethic, but also his lovefor crime fighting.“We used to belong to the ‘Cape

Town Crime Club’ – we often hadbreak-ins and crime incidents. Thepolice knew my parents by name.Because I was affected, I wanted todo something. I remember howoneday one of the cops gaveme a dock-et and told me to ‘practice on it fornow’,” he says.His ‘crime fighting career’ start-

ed when he was 13, when he wouldjoin “local security guys” on patrolon his bicycle. The neighbourhoodwatch was formed when he was 16,and at 18 he had joined as a mem-ber.“The community needs to help

the police. If you don’t reportcrimes, they won’t know aboutthem.Youmust get involved. If youdon’t want to help yourself, you re-ally can’t complain about things,”he says.As all the auxiliary officers are

members of their local neighbour-hood watches, the position allowsthem to use their policing powersto better protect their communi-ties.“The extra powers allow you to

deal with things yourself. It givesyou the ability to police your ownstreet,” he says.V Applicants who wish to join the volunteerservice must be over 18, mentally and phys-ically fit, have no criminal record and musthave a valid driver’s licence. If they complywith the above, candidates can apply viatheir neighbourhood watch, who will sub-mit applications to the City’s Law Enforce-ment Department. Once applications areverified, applicants are invited to a prelimi-nary diagnostic assessment which theyhave to successfully complete in order toprogress to the next phase.

Auxiliary Law Enforcement officer Ryan Morris.

NICOLE MCCAIN@nickymccain

For many, Mother’s Day is a time forfamily and sharing.However, for some mothers in wards

in state hospitals and Midwife ObstetricUnits across Cape Town, it’s a day of lon-eliness.This year, Cape Town Embrace spent

the day celebrating and supporting newmothers, to ensure their babies have thebest future possible.Aimed at achieving solidarity rather

than charity, the movement looks tospark human connections across socie-tal divides within the city and supportvulnerable children into the first 1000days – their most significant develop-mental period, explains project leaderJulie Mentor.“For many women, giving birth and

staying in hospital is a lonely time.“They are often away from their loved

ones and circles of support when thephysical and emotional nature of child-birth requires the love, care and supportof family and friends,” says Mentor.By connecting theparents and caregiv-

ers of children in vulnerable contextswith fellow citizens, Cape Town Em-brace strives to empower both parties tomaximise the child’s development andpotential together.The movement, started in December

2013, believes that the first 1000 days ofa child’s life (from conception to two) arethe most powerful if you want to primea child for a bright future.Around 80% of the human brain is de-

veloped by age two – it’s a critical timetonurture the potential of children,Men-tor says.“Cape Town Embrace emerged follow-

ing information that was released and

described what was happening to the ba-bies born in Cape Town,” she says.“The situation is quite devastating. Of

the approximately 75 000 babies born inCape Town each year, about 2000 die be-fore they turn one; 12 000 will be perma-nently stunted due to poor nutrition be-fore they turn two and about half of thesechildren won’t access any formal ECDservices or go on to finish school.”The movement uses the work of Ann

Masten, a pioneering researcher in thepredictors of resilience in young peopleexposed to poverty, homelessness andother adversities.Masten has identified three key pre-

dictors including: caring parents, anoth-er caring adult and connections to oppor-tunities at critical times during thechild’s life.This trifecta has been coined “Ordi-

nary Magic” and can significantly re-duce child vulnerability.“Our children are suffering because

there is not enough support. The answerwill never lay solely with the govern-ment or any organisation. It needs to bea shift made by ordinary citizens.“We need to show solidarity and empa-

thy. We believe that many of our city’sproblems are human-made and it willtake caring humans to fix them, one rela-tionship at a time,” she says.Many newmoms travel alone to hospi-

tal, where they give birth and returnhome again with their babies, alone, ex-plains Mentor.Research has shown that women who

are isolated during pregnancy, birth andin the post-partum period are at a higherrisk of developing depression and othermental health disorders, she adds.V To join as a volunteer or donate, or for moreinformation, visit the Cape Town Embrace websiteat www.embrace.org.za.

Old world romancein Fallen AngelsThe Muizenberg Amateur Dramatic Soci-

ety (MADS)will be presentingNoel Cow-ard’s Fallen Angels at The Masque Theatrein Muizenberg from Friday 20 May.This 1925 champagne-bubbly, witty romp

is full of the sharp dialogue and satirical in-sights into the British upper class that Cow-ard is renowned for.The play centres around two bored, up-

per-class British housewives, Julia Sterrolland her best friend Jane Banbury, who areboth left pining for the long lost passion oftheir youth as their husbands prefer golf toromance. Their lives are suddenly about tobe turned upside down by the imminent re-turn of Maurice Duclos – their shared, ex-French lover.The pair alternate between ecstasy and

terror in case he should appear and expose

their former lustful indiscretions.Directed by Barbara Basel, the play stars

CATA nominee Jana Botha and newcomerto the Masque Tamika Sewnarain as thebored best friends.Masque regulars Gary Green, Eve Carr

and Alastair Duff are also on stage along-sideMarkWilkes who won a Best Newcom-er CATA for his role in the Milnerton Play-ers’ production of Noises Off.Margi Blewett has designed an ‘art-deco’

set to compliment Alastair Duff’s costumes,which reflect the glamour of post-WorldWar One while John Blewett will create hisusual magic with lights and sound.V Fallen Angels will be staged Wednesday to Satur-days until Saturday 28 May with a matinee on Satur-day 21 May.

PEOPLE'S POST | FALSE BAYTuesday, 10 May 20168 COMMENTS

Think out ofthe box tobeat offencesWith reference to Keith Blake’s letter ondriver responsibility (“Driver responsibil-ity”, People’s Post, 3 May) I would say:that is such old hat, nobody even consid-ers it. Otherwise we would not have thechaos on the roads.

Perhaps Mr Blake can start someout-of-the-box thinking again and supportme in getting:

1) the courts and insurance companiesto insist that after an accident even the“innocent” driver, has to do an advanceddriver’s course, at their own expense;

2) all taxi and lorry/bakkie driverspass a driving test annually before theirlicence is renewed. Should they fail thistest no further licence is issued.’n

This can be coupled at the yearlylicence fee.

3) A special court for traffic offencessuch as parking, wrongful overtaking,speeding and all other ‘simple’ trafficoffences be arranged for every 15 000 carsregistered be instituted where students-in-law must do a two-year practice.

The fines they collect most probablywill cover the cost of such a court. Thiscourt must sit every day, even at week-ends, so that those visiting over theholiday time can pay their fines at once.

There must be enough retired trafficofficers with plenty of years experienceand an additional study course, to fillsuch positions.

Come Mr Blake, I am sure you willhave more ideas so that in future youwill say “my letter in the People’s Post of3 May should have said that”.

PENNED BY A JOURNO

All dressed up,nowhere to goSAMANTHA LEE

“All dressed up and nowhere to go” – acommon phrase that many of us mayhave heard at least once or twicethroughout our lives.

A phrase that got me thinking aboutdisappointment.

Why? You may ask with an element ofconfusion.

Well it started with a few new outfits,gorgeous shoes and two tickets to a tripanticipated for more than a year.

You get all dressed up, you get excitedand then, boom your plans get cancelled.Then you sit: All dressed up with no-where to go.

But on that note, where did this phrasecome from and why is it so loosely used?

Mygrandmother said something inter-esting to me once that has stuck with meever since.

She said: “Don’twear your best clothesduring the week because you will neverlook good when you go out.”

But who do we dress for?Ourselves? Our partners? Our friends?

Or for the average Joe on the street?Some, like myself, dress according to

their mood.When Idon’t feel likeputtinganyeffort

in, jeans or trackpants work fine. Butwhen I feel like putting on a nice dress,I’m sure people look at me and think,“Why is she so dressed up? Where is she

going?”.It makes me wonder why there is an

accepted notion that you are not allowedto look good no matter the occasion.

I suppose it also has to fit within dresscode confines, but even so, who set thestandard for what we should dress likeand when we are allowed to wear niceclothing?

The same goes for the words my grand-mother spoke. Those are ideals that havebeen imprinted in themind-sets of gener-ations while growing up.

I say it is time to change that. Weshouldhave the freedom to dress thewaywe feel.

As a fashion lover, I find clothing asan expression of moods, feelings andemotion – so why should you not wantto use it as an outlet to show the worldwho you are?

Besides, dressing well makes you feelgood and gives you confidence.

So who are these people that don’twant us to be the best versions of our-selves?

For whatever reason you are dressedup ladies and gents, rock your look. Evenif you have nowhere to go.

But if you are home and all dressed up,get up, make some plans and show thatlook off. If not and you just want to lookgood in front of the TV, no judgement.

But remember, good clothing and goodstyle is made to be admired.

‘We partied ’til midnight’Oh behalf of my mother and myself, Iwould like to thank People’s Post forthe most amazing Mother’s Dayconcert at Grand West on Saturdaynight.

I treated my mom to the concertand we expected to be there for abouttwo hours max. Well, that hallreverberated for four hours, itbounced, it rocked, it raised the roof,all while sitting in your seat – wewere in constant rocking motion, ourseats were moving all the time.

My mom is 84-years-old and we

partied ’til midnight and so enjoyedthe People’s Post concert. The wholenight my mom just beamed, laughedwith joy, clapped her hands, tappedher feet. What a fantastic concert,what a responsive audience, whattalented and beautiful South Africanwomen we listened to, and to top itall, the most incredible band – what asuper-duper night it was. Thank youfor making our Mother’s Day outing/night so special.

Driver’s attitude is keyIt is an ancient truism that the mostdangerous part of a motor vehicle is thenut behind the steering wheel, althoughobviously the Romans had their ownversion of the saying.

Another saying drummed into myskull in the days of my youthful enthusi-asm for two wheelers is that there areold bikers and bold bikers, but there areno old-bold bikers. I must agree whole-heartedly with Keith Blake of Ottery(“Driver responsibility”, People’s Post, 3May) that “it is all about that personalattitude while driving”: something whichI have repeatedly found to be true in theforty years since I first took the wheel ofa car.

I would like to add a further observa-tion, that while all of life is dependenton “that personal attitude” it is while incontrol of a vehicle and cloaked in

anonymity that a person’s inherentattitudes are unerringly displayed –whether courtesy or immaturity, altru-ism or self-centredness.

This past week I noted again on theroads those who are helpful, kind, andconsiderate, and by contrast those whogive the finger to those who observespeed limits and other rules of the road.

It is easy to pick out by their selfishbehaviour those who have no thoughtfor others, feel entitled to take prefer-ence over other road users, try tointimidate other drivers into pullingover to let them pass by tailgating atspeed; in short, those who have not yetpassed the toddler stage of “if I want itit’s mine”.

Yes, personal attitude is key.BILL ROGERS

fying Series QS1000 rated events held inCape Town for six years for men and since1992 for women, the Cape Town Pro present-ed competitors with the opportunity to earnpoints on both the QS and WSL Africa re-gional rankings, along with prize- purses ofR30 000 for men and R20 000 for women.Hoffman emerged triumphant in the see-

saw women’s final in which she and FayeZoetmulder (Port Elizabeth) both deliveredscores in the excellent range, taking the leadwith an 8.83 that left Zoetmulder needing an8.60 for victory.“To be a winner in my home town is just

great! I haven’t won an event in so long andto win a WSL event and earn some pointshere is really an honour and so exciting,”says Hoffman. “It was a very well surfed fi-nal. Faye had a couple of really good waves

while I played the patience game. Then Ifound a great little runner that let me do acouple of turns and gave me an eight, andFaye didn’t find another good wave.”Zoetmulder, who like Hoffman has com-

peted extensively on theQScircuit overseas,was proud of the standard of women’s surf-ing at an event in home surf.“It was a really good final with Tanika, we

threw some good scores down. The waveswere pretty tricky and it was challenging soto both be getting scores in the excellentrange was really good,” says Zoetmulder.“I used to surf the QS overseas and to have

two events at homenowandnot have to trav-el is amazing. The girls are all competing,we are getting more entries and I’m stokedfor the all the sponsors to be getting in-volved.”Hoffman pocketed R8000 and 1000 points

for her victory with Zoetmulder collectingR4000 and 750 points. Nikita Robb (East Lon-don) andTarrynChudleigh (Kommetjie) fin-ishedequal thirdafter losing toHoffmanandZoetmulder in their respective semi-finalencounters.

Del Castillo led the high scoring finalagainst Dylan Lightfoot (Jeffrey’s Bay) fromthe outset, weaving his way through thetricky onemetre high tide waves and finish-ing his rides with flair on the sand. The 20-year-old from Punta Hermosa, just South ofLima, posted rides of 7.33 and an excellent8.67 which Lightfoot could not match, de-spite earning a pair of sevens.“I’m so happy! I’ve come a long way from

Peru on my own and I really focused on thiscompetition. This win is for my family, formy country and for Punta Hermosa whereI live,” says an ecstatic Del Castillo, whowascheered from the edge of the water to the po-dium by a pair of local surfers in a heart-warming display of sportsmanship.“Thanks Cape Town, thanks South Africa,I’m really, really happy. Thank you.”The victory earned Castillo R12 000 and

1000 points that will see him jump nearly 100positions up the QS rankings from his rank-ing of 167th coming into the event.Lightfoot, ranked 96th before the Cape

Town Pro, was satisfied with his runner-upfinish and the 750 points that will see him

rise nearly 40 places on the leader board, butwas frustrated at coming so close to a firstQS win.“I was just out of rhythm with the waves

in the final. Joaquin got that eight whichwas a turning point in the heat and he wasinmuchbetter rhythm,” saysLightfoot. “I’msatisfied with second place in a QS event –it’s amajor jumpon the rankings forme. Butwhenyou’re so close towinning that you canalmost taste it, it’s so frustrating coming sec-ond!”Del Castillo defeated top seed Beyrick de

Vries (uMhlanga) and Lightfoot defeatedMichael February (Kommetjie) in their re-spective semi-final match-ups. De Vries andFebruary finished equal third overall withR3 000 and 560 points each.The final day of the event started in glassy

one metre waves, but a thick mist bank thatrolled in after the semi-finals put the eventon hold for more than three hours before itwas completed in brilliant sunshine andwindless conditions.Full results of the Cape Town Pro can be
