kinda what i was thinking.. hopefully we'll get some good wind in october so i can test the high end of my waroo 16.. i'd hope that and my 160 board that i got from Ebone last year (great in waves!) will be my combo..

toby, it only counts if you still have your board at the finish line :lol:
also you are required to stop at the finish line as well... no fly-by's :?

Duct tape and a reliable QR!!!

You'll have plenty of chances to try out all the new gear everyone has stocked up on this past off season. This will be a good chance for those that arent sure if they are up for the endurence. It's going to be demanding on your legs so the practice will be a good chance for you to see just where you are physically.

I dont now about you guys but the summer has been good to me....my harness was tight this past session....

Look forward to seeing eveeryone there....
