Default What wind directions will u run the race in?

J.

Looking forward to another downwind race, thanks for hooking us all up with the organization bro.

What wind directions will you run the race in.

And....how shallow are the flats? can a directional board with 4.5 inch fins get through there?

On perfet conditions you can NOT get thru the flats with fins much larger than 2". The other day I ran the course and it was so shllow you needed a landboard.
Dependent on the tide it can be anywhere from dry to 18" deep in the flats area.
We are waiting for a strong NNE, EEN, or E wind. We want to have at least 20 at the finish line to hold the sprint runs.

Since we have so may youths involved I might be able to throw in some goodies for the top 3. We will call it the unofficial youth division.
