...Any such thing as a shell with a spike?

Err, google "cone shell".
The rocky bits should be safe, apart from the stonefish.

Hey good luck all of you! Warm water, nice weather, tropical island, we are all slightly envious.

Go Tassie team. Kaz best luck to you young girl you deserve a run. Buzzy get Jodi to carry you and your gear to the water, strap yourself on and rip it.........well maybe rip it is the wrong word but hope you get a sail. Dave have a good one and all of you have fun.

Pity you cant make it Kellie, at least we get to meet Dylan though

I'm not sure if anything else will go wrong. 5.50 Qantas flight is broken, their trying to get everyone on the 8am Jetstar flight. Probably wont make our connecting flight to Cairns. Worst thing is they have unloaded the plane, we have to collect our luggage and rebook it with Jetstar. We all know my 3 gear bags wont go on Jetstar so then I'll have to take it back to Qantas and they will try to get it on a latter flight.
No big deal, just a bloody nuisance.

Better than flying on a broken plane though, at least you know you'll get there alive

There's a couple of links to GPS tracking of the Freerace .. ( I haven't seen anything like this since looking at sperm on a microscope slide!)

Howzit goin on the Island guys we've heard Buzzy is back in action

"No he's not"!!!!

Hows the free race going?? results..
results table is not linking up.

Buzzy 2nd, Dave 4th me 7th. Yes and 1st in females, my component was an 8 yr girl on a 2.5 sail.

Such a relief now it's done & dusted and now realising what bloody good fun it all was. Like delivering a baby you forget all the pain and ready to roll again

Well done everyone.
Great effort

I think Kazz was the stand out this year, beating most of the guys.
Sounds like Kalebs injuries had resolved and did not hold him back.
Dave very close behind.

Congratulations Kazz for new womens freerace and slalom Aussie champion.

Also to the new mens Australian freerace, slalom and freestyle champions.
