IT WAS surf stories galore out on the VIP Deck at the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach for the Torquay Boardriders Easter Luncheon last week.

More than 200 guests had the chance to hear from eight-time world surfing champion Stephanie Gilmore, two-time world record holding freediver Ant Williams and local surfers Tully Wylie and Xavier Huxtable.

Guest speakers talked fondly about their sporting journey and where to next in their respective careers.

The fundraising event featured a mega auction and raffle, with all funds supporting the club’s development programs and running costs.

Fundraising totals are still to be calculated.
