The
IBA (international bodyboard association) has started the year with a new team and a new strenght to push things for bodyboard. Far from the first years with the self proclaimed all aussie board, this new one has representatives from all over the world. Vice president is former pro-bodyboarder Bernardo Alvim(photo) from Portugal. Bernardo has been doing a great job with the
APB(association of portuguese bodyboard) lately, and is a excellent choice for the seat. To represent France we have Mathieu Desaphie. Other interesting names include Francisco Garritano of Brazil, one of the makers of the IBA latin america tour, by far the most sucessull tour in the world, and Steve Kirkman of Australia. Lastly but not least , our President is Mike Stewart. Lets all expect a great year for the IBA, and everybody pushing for the same side. "there is no peace without justice"
