Hey salty, the judging is pretty straight forward, head out and sail at the end of each session the judges will pick who they thought was the best in that session. You will be judged on everything you do in that session, so jumps, rides, turns, spins and bribes...yeah they all count.

Also any competitor may be asked to provide some input into the judging of a division they are not competing in.

Mr Seks... To be fair to all and give everyone a good chance just the one category entry allowed. However that is not to say you can't spend every waking moment on the water, just be respectful to the guys that are being judged is all we ask. The main aim here is to have fun.

Forecast is looking sweet
Just hoping we get thoughs classic currumbin waves

Jamie who have you got for judging
Someone mentioned that maybe the guys from the boardriders club are going to do it.

I have had a couple of guys from the Alley boardriders show some interest in doing some judging for us, otherwise it will competitors from other divisions.

Swell report for today from Coastalwatch...

Swell size: 3-5ft E
The swell is bigger and a bit uneven out of the E at around 3-5ft, with the odd bigger one. The winds are light from the SW now and are predicted to go SE later. The swell has plenty of push behind it and swimming is dangerous. There are few outside bombs on the beachies at TOS, from Mermaid to Tugun and D'bah early, but the points are the pick by far with a strong sweep at Burleigh and Currumbin and from Snapper to Kirra is the pick. Check out the latest Coastalwatch swell forecast.

Forecast is still looking good for both days. Below is a pic of the Alley from this morning...hmmmm nice

hehe - i think i might bring a spare mast or 2... 6ft and wind shadows :)

Tis looking interesting!!!!

see you all there tommorow.

peace.

Saturday isn't looking to hot wind wise can one rock up on sunday and still enter?

I reckon its looking good now and could easily go out, I think the weekend will be even better

Dan told me it was going off! As good as the alley gets!

I dont believe him, I want to see pics first, does anyone have any?

Here is a teaser, I will put up a report and more pics when I have a bit more time.

Suffice to say the results were:

Open:1st Dan Berry - 2nd Shane Finigan
Master: 1st Oli Barta - 2nd Pete Meyers
Amateur: 1st Tatsuhiro Ishii

few randoms

thanks mate. That turned out t be one of the best 2 days of sailing (and swimming) Ive ever had, thumbs up to jaime and the boys for running the comp so well, and also Currumbin boardriders for cutting us some slack and letting us run the comp in the alley, much appreciated.

Man thats looks insane sounds like it was a great week alround for windsurfing in QLD

How many kms swam you think jaime ? I recon I could take half the overall tally myself just checked with the gps, 3km from the alley to the second groin, twice! That's 6km in one session + the sail back upwind. Beat that one

Well worth it in the end though.

ha, thanks for the mug shot jamie... yes i do owe will a new mast, good thing K.RUDD is giving us all money to invest in windsurfing gear!

heres a link to one vid i took on sunday arvo... more to come!
