Hmmm so maybe the Nationals could be run in April then, so all the Aussie contenders are fully race-tuned...just a thought.
The Aussie competitors are already race tuned at that time as NSW and QLD state titles have been held in April/May in the past. Nationals won't be held in April as the states would not have run their qualifying state titles by then.
Actually, there will be a bit of a bottle neck with the ISA World Titles in Nicaragua scheduled for May 3rd to 11th and this event planned for 23rd - 25th May, and from what I gather, the World Tour surf event in WA on 16th - 18th May with possibly a wider window. The NSW state titles, AKA the Southern Cross Festival of SUP has been run across these dates in mid to late May in the past.
