Racing Series in Perth
Hi guys and girls,

I've finally had some time to get some things done and have made the first of the marker bouys for the slalom racing. I'll have the other 4 finished by the end of next week.

I figure the best place to have the first race will be off Leighton Beach. It's wide and sandy and allows plenty of room to spread out and is centrally located between the North, the South and the River.

I was thinking the 9th of December would be ideal at around 2pm, and now need to call for registration of riders interested in the series or even individual races. Racing will be subject to good wind speed. The stronger the better

Next race will be in the river and will be a course race and a slalom to make things more interesting. Then next race to be at Pinnaroo Point. Additional events will be run if we get the interest.

If you are keen to give it a run, just register on this thread and send me an email to info@kiteboardingschool.com.au with your name and phone number.

I hope to get a bunch of keen speed freaks together and run a regular thing.

Good winds,

This is an approximation of the course for the first Race/Slalom event at Leighton Beach. It is approximately 6.5km in length and contains upwind and downwind components. The course is to be changed to suit conditions on the day. Start will be between beach flag and boat. Racers ride upwind around first mark, then downwind around remaining marker bouys and finish between boat and beach flag again. Good Racing!
