Just to add to the madness that is the Merimbula Classic we can confirm that there will be a three SUP races at the event this year.

Along with the Beach to Bar Team and Surf Team Relay, there will be an 8k downwind run in Merimbula Bay!

The Balmoral Beach to bar SUP OFF!

[/i]Now in its 6th year this highly contested team event has been 'upgraded' with the first leg to now to run along the front of town out to Bar Beach. Here the 2nd team member will paddle down to main beach, with the last two paddlers going up and back to the Bar again.

Surely one of the hi-lights of the event with 'Best Attired Team' up for grabs!

The SUP ATX Surf Team Relay

Just when you think the madness is over the same teams compete in the Surf Team relays right out front of main Beach on Sunday morning, hang-overs and all. With all the chaos that goes with Surf Relay Team racing, this event tends to create it's own carnage!
Salt Creek? Phhhht!

The Lahui Kai Merimbula Bay Run


At last - an official down wind race at Merimbula. With perfect conditions for Down wind paddling the window for this event will be saved for when the wind is doing it's thing. Paddling from Merimbula Main Beach to Pambula in a N'Easter (or reverse in a southerly).
This is an individual race with trophies for the winners in each division.

With just 6 weeks to go kiddies, stay tuned for further updates and race details.

Yeeew!
