Hi folks!

An update on all things 2012 nationals:

So we have had to start up SEQ wavesailing again as an organisation to run under WQ (windsurfing queensland) and AWA (australian windsurfing association) in terms of insurance, SO this means that people entering the competition will need to be either a member of WQ, or an AWA affiliated organisation. If you are not a paid member of one of these organisations there will be a process whereby you will need to become a 'member' of SEq wavesailing for the week of competition. More details on this will become apparent in the next week or so.

We are also in the process of producing an official 2012 Wavesailing Nats website with entry form links etc. When we have an official poster of sorts I will start a new 'official' 2012 wave nats thread.

We have also had JP / Neil Pryde jump on board as our official sponsors which is fantastic. We also have two official judges pencilled in to the event and a p[ossible photographer/cinematographer for the event!

SO, what you all need to do is get pumped for a week of gold Coast epicness (we've already had the South East trades blowing which is a good sign for months to come!) and get yourself up to the GC for the week of the 10th-17th March!

More updates very shortly!

PS: to those overseas sailors who have privately contacted me regarding entry. Yes, you will be able to enter but will need to become a part SEQ wavesailing for the week of competition as outlined above.

Burrum windfest is from the 9th to the 11th of March.
Apparently you have to choose your side: slalom or wave

Hi Chris, Great to see you are striking up the SEQ wavesailing club again. It would be great if ther was a permanent wave sailing club for sailors again. Did you just sign the incorperation across from Jamie? If so there will still be some paperwork we will need to get in order to get it all up to speed again so give me a call when it suits and we will get it all under way - it can take a little bit of time for the aquatic permits etc.

Cheers, Scot Farley (President Windsurfing Queensland)
