THE LC
Europe's most exciting indoor surfing experience is now available for sponsorship. The Boardrider, which is the first of its kind in Europe, is owned and operated by South Wales' premier leisure complex, the LC, which is located in Swansea at the gateway to the Gower Peninsula, one of the UK's premier surfing destinations. The Edge, which is the LC's waterpark where the Boadrider is situated, attracted 267,000 visitors last year alone. The LC was opened in style by Her Majesty the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh in 2008. The last few years have been extremely successful for the LC, with the complex picking up a host of awards for its services and offerings, as well as being named "Wales' Most Visited Paid for Attraction" by tourism body Visit Wales for two years running. The Boardrider provides perfect waves for both boogie boarding and stand up surfing, with a number of different speed settings to cater for all abilities. It is the first surf machine to work on a 'deep water' basis, as opposed to simply shooting shallow water across the surface. Waves are created by four pumps projecting water towards the surfboard at three different levels of speed - beginner, intermediate and pro. Air is then pumped into an adjustable 'hump' underneath the board, which increases the size of the wave according to individual ability. In addition to becoming an integral part of the indoor surfing revolution that is currently sweeping the UK, not to mention the rest of the world, further Boardrider sponsor benefits include     re-branding of the Boardrider to include company name    visual branding of the Boardrider's surrounding area and viewing platform     option to add physical structures into surrounding area and viewing platform (eg deckchairs, beach scene, etc.)    point of sale    total control of sound system unique to the Boardrider area. More information, pictures and videos of the LC and the Boardrider are available on the LC website. Contact: Lauren Allchurch, Account Manager. Address: MGB PR, 2 Princess Way, Swansea SA1 3LW.

SBD/001 BRITISH LONGBOARD UNION
The BLU has been in existence since 1994 and throughout this period has relied on a combination of sponsorship and entry fee to hold a series of five competitions each year to decide the winner of each division at the final event. These competitions are predominantly held in the south west of England, though venues have taken place in the north east, Wales and the Channel Islands. These are proven events attracting some of the best long boarders the UK has to offer. Competitors, such as Ben Skinner, Sam Bleakley, Chris Griffiths and Eliot Dudley are of European and International standard, with Ben Skinner being the European Champion (2007) and second placed finisher in the ISA World Surfing Games 2006. These competitions allow any aspiring surfer the opportunity to compete against the best in the UK, indeed Europe, which provides great motivation for young surfers. There is no seeding for positions based on past performance. Divisions include Juniors (male and female), Ladies, Masters (40 years +) and Open. The BLU has a website (www.british-longboard-union.co.uk> which it uses to inform interested parties, competitors and other interested parties of events, results, points standings, etc. The BLU is looking for sponsorship to fund the 2008 round of competitions and would welcome interest from sponsors for support at any appropriate level. The sponsorship levels available are     Sole sponsorship of the entire 2008 series    Sole sponsorship of an event(s)     Co-sponsor of the whole 2008 series. In return, the BLU will provide exposure for the sponsoring company via     links on the website    the erection of promotional items or equipment provided by the sponsor at the selected event(s)     hand out of provided promotional clothing, etc. to competitors    Any prizes that the sponsor may wish to award.
