Amaury Lavernhe: eyeing the barrel at El Quemao | Photo: Quemao Class

Amaury Lavernhe has claimed the Quemao Class 2016, at El Quemao, in Lanzarote, Canary Islands.

Sunny skies, warm temperatures, and world-class waves. That's all you need to run a successful bodyboarding competition. The Quemao Class, started in 2014, is a dual event, in which surfers also battle for trophies.

There were so many barrels and scoring opportunities that all riders should feel content with the outcome. The reef break delivered powerful left-hand tubes, and bodyboarders displayed their bag of airs, el rollos, spins, and backflips.
