Yachting Queensland is setting up a 5 year development plan for the State's hopeful and shall be basing the training on Techno boards. Problem is we only have 2 sets of gear and we would like to have a fleet of 6 at least. Would you have a techno (any age any size) you would donate or lend to YQ? We also need rig - sails, masts, booms but fairly recent models please. All help appreciated.
Once the junior program is put in place, we shall be looking at expanding onto adults and open class too, training our riders not just to reach state level, but nationals and ultimately onto the Olympic class.
We also plan to run an annual Techno Cup in Queensland, who knows, it may turn into a national event too. It is huge in the States and Europe. Might be a little behind time on the idea, but it's better late than never.
So anyone has any decent gear you would like to donate or loan to YQ for the development squad, please contact myself at padi@surfconnect.com or call 0411-789 888. We will also consider formula/hybrid boards at this stage so to get as many riders out there in the training program as we can.
