Just thought I'd post up details of a rapidly growing event on Sunday the 8th of Sept in Sydney.

JPP and WindsurfnSnow are hosting a large scale SUP day at the lake incorporating demos, lessons, inter SUP club time trial challenge, and a inflatable SUP X event (based on Dogman's format from Mornington, EPIC!).

The goal is to get at least 50 paddlers doing the TT and with last weeks numbers at 30 I think we'll do OK.

If demoing is you thing then come see a shed load of 2014 gear from Fanatic, JP, Naish and last but not least Starboard. 3 trailer loads plus of new kit will be there so come and get in to it.

For the long board racer guys, this is what will be there. If there's anything in particular paddlers want to use for the TT, best to get your requests in ASAP to the shop on 9971 0999.

Fanatic Falcon 14' x 24.75", Falcon 14 x 27.25", Falcon 12'6" x 24.75", Falcon 12'6" x 27.25", Naish Glide 14 GX, Javelin 12'6" x 28", Naish Javelin LE 14' x 23", Naish Javelin LE 12'6" x 24", JP Race All Water 14' x 26.5", JP All Water 12'6" x 30", JP All Water 14' x 30", JP Sportster 14' x 28", JP Sportster 12'6" x 29", Starboard Sprint 14' x 24", Ace 14' x 23.5", Ace 14' x 25", All Star 14' x 25", All Star 12'6" x 25", All Star 12'6" x 27.5". This is all I could remember off the top of my head.

See you there

Great opportunity to demo some boards from all of the major brands and support a good cause at the same time The time trial will be fun with 50 people starting off at various intervals but based on the Mornington Peninsula SUP X event , this will be the highlight. We'll just have to make sure that "Baby Cakes" Green actually goes around the buoys this time.

I checked with Dogman after and he said I did no wrong!!

Looking forward to this, its going to be awesome!!

Doggie did say anything goes but I didn't realise he was talking about the SUP X race.

Just hang your leg out and wave it around the buoy that works..

Really?? Wow!! That is serious!! Shouldn't we be training then? :)

Have fun. Looks like perfect conditions. Will miss this one unfortunately but fired up for Newie in a couple of weeks

Dam double dam, gotta work sunday is this a regular event as would be keen as.... specially as i am in the market of an ISUP.

The demo race combo is a first, however, there is a time trial here every Sunday with up to 30 people paddling. JPP is a demo centre so you can try boards from all of the major brands. A really good opportunity to try the various boards available and purchase the right one and then get to improve with people of similar ability.

Yep John
Rob scoped the jiont for us and reported back today.
We now have a fool proof plan that cant fail.

Thing is I gave him the wrong course!! I've known him too long.

Central Coasters are taking this very seriously. Toby Cracknell and Terrene Black checked out the course today as well.

So what's the go if you haven't done something like this before??
Do you get smashed by the pros and in my case the grannies etc???
Is this a bad time to try your first one??

Perfect time Larko. Staggered handicapped started means everyone paddles their own time trial without the big hitters on the same start line Should be fun.

No excuses Larko. We see you sneak in each Sunday. Just get there a bit earlier.

Check out the look on Dale's face!! (Baaad intentions! )
