Preliminary results are
Rich Stenning - 1st Cab SB10 and Underground race board
Ric Black - 2nd SS Rally14M and Glide
Marine Sudre - 3rd Cab CB11 and Underground 1.52FLX
More details later, but lets just say that if you want to wind next year you will have to be on a Race Board to beat Richie. It was a very convincing result, Ric and Marine do amazingly well on their large TT's, but Rich finished well ahead of them (by up to half the course) in all but the last race when I think he did not try as hard as he knew he had the title in the bag.
congrats on the win richie!
pity you didnt do better jeff i was hoping you would take it out :)
hopefully this will be on next season, i will definately be there to give it a dig.
Its ON!
2011/2012 Race dates.
November 11th and 25th
December 9th
January 2012 6th and 20th
Final February Saturday 4th
Sponsors not fully confirmed yet but I am sure Cabrinha will be returning as will Kitepower and Ozone.
Friday evening seemed to work well, there was very little congestion with other beachgoers and water users, and we can make the start time a bit later, say 5.00pm or even 5.30pm. Since its light to at least 7.30 at that time of the year.
Running the races on Saturdays or Sundays will create conflict issues with the yacht clubs, beachgoers and kiters who all like to use the Dolls area on weekends.
Anyone have any thoughts on this??
And I am sure we will have to have 2 classes this year, Race Boards and "other boards".
I think Friday afternoon was good. Feb 3rd will be my 30th B'day too so it will only be fitting for the birthday boy to take out the series right? ![]()
Jeff they are all Fridays....and you better do some training before next year. your upwind body drag is good but once you put the board on your feet you fall apart.
Thanks to Steve, Kitepower, Cabrinha, Wind Surf and Snow for putting on this years series and thanks Rick and Marine for making it a good 3 way contest. Lets do it again next year, It will be good to see more into it as it was a heck of a lot of fun.
Yeah that's where I fail at all board sports, as soon as I get a board underneath me I suck...
I'm still gonna take you down this year though. I've hired some thugs and they're just going to knee-cap anyone who looks like beating me. I reckon I will have gone through pretty much everyone by the time the finals come around ![]()
