Windforce & Windsurfing Western Australia are again running a Wednesday night Twilight Series this Summer Commencing Wednesday the 10th of November.

Why should the Yachties have all the fun?

?This is a just for fun event and is designed to attract all levels of sailor that want a bit of fun and experience.

?We will get on the water at 5.30 and wherever possible try to get as many heats in as we can.

oWindy Conditions = Slalom, Freeride or Wave gear.
oLight Conditions = Big boards (Formula and Longboards)

We will have a start sequence and a designated course to sail as per a normal race, so you can get the feel of how racing works. There will be a number of the top sailors on the water, so you can pick up a few tips. We will have a score board to record your finishing position in each heat and tally the final results. The Twilight Series is a great training ground for the real thing.

In the same way that yacht clubs attract experienced and inexperienced sailors all just wanting to have some fun and share a common passion we are going to do the same. Bring down some mates or come down by yourself as everyone is welcome!!!


PIZZA AND COLDIES PROVIDED AFTER

...NOT THAT THIS WOULD BE A REASON AT ALL TO PARTICIPATE!

This season Windsurfing WA is offering to make it so easy to try a GPS.
Join WWA and you can come to the Windforce Wednesday Twighlight Series at Pelican Point and we will strap a unit to your arm. We will take it back from you at the end of the session and upload the data for you to ka72.com. What could be easier?

If you like it, buy your own unit and join a team at gpsteamchallenge.com.au Your sailing will improve, you will meet like minded speedsters to learn from and have fun. Find out whether you really are faster than your mates! If you are interested in trying a gps come on Wednesday or send me a PM
