This year was a cracker too for wind with speeds just under the 40 mark.

Not for some unfortunately

2014 is your year Snags

footage I don't think ever made the light of day.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to launch from in front of either of the caravan parks and access the course? If not, and you are staying in the caravan park, where do you go to launch and is it a carry or vehicle job?

Iam planning to come again this year ,the later dates will suit me better and look forward to more runs along the speed strip and good company

The other option Ian and especially if you're trying out a new speed board (sinker), is to go out in a boat and rig on the sand-bar as the tide drops.

I'm in House is booked and the leave applied for

...at the end of each day and eventuially the end of comp the rashie is to be handed back ready to be awarded again. similar to the tour de france format.

Better start injecting growth hormone then....

the mayor of burrum has his own personal growth hormone. I am sure some are familiar....

I've just payed my entry fee book a camp site, fingers crossed it blows. pop my Burrum cherry.

Yes it is, i'l be pushing for lots of laughs and PB's

Gestalt said..

usually when someone hits the event for the first time they break all of their pb's so fingers crossed for you as well.

20 knots from the S-SE should get you taping on your pb door. come and see me on the bank and I'll give you a few tips on how to sail the run to get the most out of it.

will see you up there!
cheers
Justin.
