It's on again this weekend

Last year was a roaring success even though there was very little wind and negligible swell

Don't forget your SUP's if you've got them (and you can chuck a sail on them)

Just need the WWA crew to announce which day

Yep. Saturday it is. Come on Huey. Pleeeeasse

The Avalon Amateur event will take place this Saturday from 2pm. We will meet at the car park on Westview Parade, Wannanup, Mandurah (Port Bouvard, North Port) but may relocate to the car park at Avalon Parade and Burna St depending on the conditions.

I guess being a WWA event . must be member to attend/particpate.

Yes please, your membership covers insurance but also gets you a t-shirt, some stickers. Membership gives you free entry to ALL the WWA events this year so after you have a couple of snags and a beer at each event the cost of membership is qucikly recovered.

Thankfully we have great support from our sponsors to enable free events to be run.

Please note LOC marathon is not a WWA event but the slalom on the sunday usaully is.

Had a nice sail out here today, but not with wave gear.
Unfortunately waves were only ankle to knee high most of the time with a waist high set appearing about once an hour.

Waves are forecast to pick up a bit tomorrow, but the wind isn't!

If it gets to 12kts and waist to chest high, I'll see you out there.

OK, I'll see what I can do.

Breakfast report.
2 sups out on 3rd break, 3 sups out at 2nd break, couple of surfers on the point.

Swell has lifted since yesterday, sups are getting knee to chest (if your a small person) high waves.
tide is low at the moment, so waves should get a bit bigger as the tide comes in, (no guarantees).
Wind is in the right direction SW at about 5knots.
Fingers crossed the wind gets stronger.

Be back around noon.

Good turn out considering the conditions.
SUPing followed by SUP sailing in a pleasant little swell.

Thanx Garry , Tim and Mark..
Had a gr8 time. I' ll be taking the SUP sail attached out more often.

Big thanks to every one for a pleasant after noon, also to the people who lent out equipment for the rest of us to try.

Yep, very enjoyable afternoon. Excellent choice in beer Garry. 380 kms? You are a legend mate.
