Hi All - we are going to have a planning meeting at the Mid Coast (Seaford Rise)for the wave titles and finalise whether or not we can get them up and running in September.



contact ssaws2008@hotmail.com or location or send a Personal Email to me via seabreeze (have emailed address to SASWS email list (SLSC at moana was closed so its at a private residence)

EDIT - Sorry I put .au on the hotmail address and they bounced - it is now correct



Bring a sausage or two, a cold ale and catch up with some crew and lets see if we can get it off the ground.

Agenda will be

Comp format,(heats vs expression session + final) expression session the preferred option from most crew)
divisions,
location and dates
minimum forecast to call it.
Sign on cost (WSA fee + $10 or so)
Safety
Judging
Prizes?
Sponsorship opportunities
Publicity ????
Event coordinator


Followed by beer, a sausage and general banter and if we can get a projector some windsurf footage from Maui (hope thats still ok dave) and the Windsurf movie or something

If we can get this up and running this weekend I reckon we can do it - this is the last chance to get it happening before the winter northerlies disappear. If not I am going to forget about the whole process and just going sailing (after my rib repairs in 6 weeks)

Cheers

RussH

P.S the reason one says ssaws and one says sasws is I stuffed up when I registered the log on with seabreeze and hotmail DOH!)

Chris,
I can build a site like that no problems, I'd just need to get all the info that the group want on it.
Obviously the domain name & hosting needs to be sorted by windsurfing sa or the wave group, but I think you're only talking $20 a month give or take.
The other option is to do a blog site (like I done before and was asked to hand over to others???) that way it costs nothing.

When you say you 'did', do you mean you told me to hand it over to someone else (I can't recall you doing that) or you have made another blog site?

I would like to make it but I have to go to a wedding on 1st Aug. Happy to assist with Judging and the structure for the judging which I was involved with during some of the Robe comps in the late 90's...

Cheers Geoff - all assistance gratefully accepted - judging is something we want to finalise early in the organisation to ensure its fair and gives valid results.

I just downloaded the PWA Wave rules - faaaar out - an expression session with a top performers final is definitely my preferred way to go - the heat structure variations did my head in just reading it

The main thing is to make it inclusive of us ordinary social wave sailors (speaking for myself) in a social division as well as some of our looping air big wave move specialists in an open division to show us what can be done.
Lets ensure we get it on film and enjoy a beer and a chat afterwards.

This weekend we just want to get the behind the scenes stuff underway.

I was correcting your gammar......trying to be funny, I think the blog still exists, would be easy to fire up again,

Oooohhh!
Sorry, I've been sitting at the computer most of the day trying to work out 'PHP'... trying to build a slightly more complex site. My brains turned to Jelly! (more jelly)
Anyway it's done now... or is that did?
Besides, my grandma's dead!

Alls go for Saturday afternoon.

Have 4kg's of sausages, a data projector, a fresh bottle of gas and a few chunks of wood for the fire.

Kick off from 230 - get the comp stuff over by 330 - sausage sizzle beers and a few windsurf movies after that.

Email me via seabreeze or the ssaws2008@hotmail.com if you want more details of location

See you there

Cheers to everyone that came along - was a great turn out and I think we have enough support and ideas to get this off the ground.

will post some more details closer to the date and we will get some flyers around the place ASAP - just keep September penciled in for a wave comp at either the mid coast or Middleton. (except the 26th - Grand final day)

Really enjoyed the social catch up and a few ales with everyone - thanks for coming down!
