Tim O'Connor from Mount Manganui has won the O'Neill Kaikoura Coldwater Classic for 2010.
Day one and Two scored great waves in the 2-4ft range at Meatworks. Day 3 was a bit changable with strong cross shore winds at times but it cleaned up nicely for the Open final.
There was a big turn out this year with 110 competitors from all over the country. A good crew from the North island traveled down and earned many final berths but they didn't have it all their own way with the top South Island surfers posting equally as high scores.
