Caroline Peret (France) won the Roxy North East Women's Open, held at Longsands Beach, Tynemouth over the weekend.
In tricky conditions, Caroline managed to catch the best waves and surf them well to dominate the final defeating her fellow competitors. She took an early lead scoring a 6.9 out of a possible 10 points forcing the other finalists to play catch up. Jenny Horbas (Bournemouth) came closest and eventually placed second. Third went to Australian Raine Jackson and fourth Lauren Davies (Newcastle).
