I just heard that all of the SUP surfing heats, reps right through to the final are all on tomorrow (Tues 17th). Can anyone entered confirm that....if you took your laptops to Noosa ? What a great day it will be if it is correct.

The competitors gift bags have only now become available including shirts.....
Can be picked up from the golden breed shop out the back

Funny today how the PA guy was going on about woogie winning the race yesterday???

Dale and I may do a run up to double island point later in week if anyone up here is interested. Great sup wave and well worth the trip.

N/Castle sup, I've heard good things about dbl island pt, how far is it from Noosa ? and on what conditions does it work best. Regards Rodriquez

Not far at all a 2min barge trip and a 30 to 40 min blast down the beach pending the tide , it likes a East swell.

Any results from the Sup heats today.

Thanks for the update Rich... GO LUMMERS !!! ...

Casso...

Thanks Sue.. More pics please.. ..

Also pics of the comp would be good thanks..

It looks like a real grovel.. .. I agree AA.. They should have held off with the final and run it on another day.. A day with better waves.

Maybe they should have sent the women out today .. .. Is it a double elimination format?.. Do the loosers get another chance?

DJ

I would have sat all day near that as well Fantastic view right there, awesome shape as well great pics!!

running the finals today was probably just to get it out of the way,although it is a festival of surfing i think the organisers,not the noosa malibu club, still treat it a a second class surf sport,well it wont go away and with the standard of surfing right across the field we are in for some good contest aus wide,so if sup is being planned for a part of a longboard comp give the finalist some credit and run it the same time as the other finals,sup is as spectacular to watch as a good shortboard comp,the crowd today were stoked to see a new sport with so much talent.with sup surfers from 15 to 35 plus in the finals our sport is safe.

It is great to see the locally made boards in the final (4) - top 3 places went to local board manufactures. Three boards from the Noosa Surf Works factory.

Also top 3 spots QLDers 4 QLDers in the final

Home ground advantage

Still, was a fun event and got to meet a bunch of new people.

Congratulations on your 3rd place Keahi ! Not bad for a 16 year old amoungst all those old *arts...well done. You were great to watch !!

I agree..

It would be different if it was the last day.. but even then they should extend it..

..but to run it in those slops on pretty much the first days is a bit crappy in my book.

Was JB (Mr Naish) there?.. anyone notice?

DJ

I know Lummers had a new move that he'd be busting to show everyone but he could not have done it in that mushy small surf.
