IT is supe fun up there. Yorkeys Knob to Palm Cove is a really fun short one. Otherwise there's heaps of runs all to the way to Port. There is definitely some local crew upthere ripping. There are doing to epic sends.
It's a wonder the organisers don't hold this Cairns Downwind week (Mini-G and GBROC). Such an amazing week of DW.
For August instead of July (I'd love to experience this DW run) as Hawaii is the MECA for Downwind Racing; June/ July there's like 10 Downwind Races there, with a GREAT VIBE. Other than that the only thing Cairns could offer a Block like me would be Barramundi Fishing or Marlin Fishing. Plus it be great to surf some of those Great Barrier Reef Wave during cyclone season there's some World Class Waves out there.
