Can you enter on the day - depending on the weather?




As far as I know - no, you cannot. The weather has no bearing on the comp' - if it's too dangerous it will be moved - if its too small, it will be moved or just run regardless.
Are you bringing your Bic sups for demo - I would love to test one in a decent beachy like Scamander rivermouth.


I'm taking up two new Coreban boards, a 9'6 and 9'. Bic are (I believe) bringing their bamboo surf SUP's into Australia later in the year. The bamboo boards are for more high end users.

I might take a 10'6 and 9'6 Bic Ace-Tech also. I haven't attended a meet in Tassie before and am not sure of the ability of people attending. What do you think?



Hey jules - do you have any Bic longboards for demo ? Would love to try a 9.4 and 10.0 mal.

Definately THE classic SUPer bank

I contacted quite a few southern SUPers today
to get a feel for additional entries.

Looks like four certainties and about five maybees
still to come.

We need support to ensure good sponsership
for the future .. please make the effort .. you'll
be helping your own cause.

HOT TIP

To be at your best on the day .. 22 Jun ..
make sure you have plenty of wetsuit
booties sessions in the meantime.

Nothing worse than re-adjusting to booties.

Sincerely

Dr. SUP



HOT TIP 2

At this stage you should be building up a conspiracy
against your closest rivals .. occupy their favourate
carpark .. death stare them .. & etc.

Sincerely

Dr. SUP




[b]HOT TIP 3

Beverages are a very important consumable to have
on the beach at all times .. beer, for energy and overcoming
pre comp nerves ( but if you are from the south bring your
own eski of Cascade .. Boags upsets the digestive bacterior )
Also be prepared to go out for capachinos .. to bribe the judges.
Judges can't resist a chino and chocolate eclaire .. as a matter of fact
chino and choco eclaires were once banned from comp areas .. the
placings were being effected too much.

Sincerely

Dr. SUP
[/b]




HOT TIP 4

Make sure you have a second, more conservative board. Because
you know what happens at comps ..waves are good until your heat .. then
the swell drops and the wind comes onshore. So you will have to forsake
that sleek pro-custom job and bring on the bloated canetoad .. it will serve
you well. And so you will have need to re-bond with with this unit, over many
slushy sessions, between now and JUNE 22.

Sincerely

Dr. SUP


HOT TIP 5

High profile, on the beach, on the day, is essential .. so make sure
you have a TassieSUP Winter Classic T shirt .. Sea Urchin Design
Hoodie .. customised stubbie cooler .. fin cluster covered with a beach
towel .. and dog-eared volumes of both "Busting Down The Doors"
and "Searching For MT" discreetly on view.

I would encourage every paddler entering the surf race at scamander to wear their fave footy (or chosen sport) jumper in the race. Ive already heard that their is a bit of friendly aggression building between the collingwood paddler and the Smithton saints paddler !!!
