Well that's a wrap for another season!
We had been keeping a very close eye on the forecasts for tomorrow for our last chance to run one final event for the season, and a tough decision has been reached not to hold an event tomorrow. The forecast is for wind at dawn dropping pretty rapidly in the morning, while the swell forecast is great. There is certainly a chance for an early sail, but not reliable enough conditions to hold any heats.
That draws to a close the season 'event window' to hold a roaming event.
It's been a great series with over 50 regular competitors; we held four great events and crowned our winners in both classes!
We started the season off with some great events early with a nice SW down at Right Point on Philip Island and then a light Westerly at Point Impossible. We got pretty lucky with wind, and only one event the wind never came through and left us all sitting on the beach at Woolamai!
Cup weekend in Nov we had a strong Westerly at Warratah bay's 'The Gap' which saw heaps of guys hit the water, and then the final round in Jan was a great fun SE at Sandy Point with small swell and heaps of wind which really suited the Intermediate class, with stacks of people getting out into the waves that day.
Huge thanks to everyone who supported the series by coming along to a round, thanks to our series sponsors; Windsurf Victoria, RPS, The ZU, SHQ & Core Boardsports.
