THE 34th MERIMBULA CLASSIC Wave sailing kite surfing Stand Up Paddle surfing The longest running event of its type in the world
Dear Sponsors Merimbula Sailboard Club will be hosting the 34th Merimbula Classic from Thursday 27th to Sunday 30th November 2014.
The Classic encompasses three water disciplines Stand Up Paddle (SUP) surfing, wave sailing and kite surfing. So there is always something happening in the water from dawn to dusk.
This popular event attracts over 280 competitors from around Australia and overseas to Merimbula. Competitors from the US and Hawaii, Fiji, Greece, Great Britain, Noumea, Tahiti, the Carribean, Japan and NZ as well as Australia’s hottest riders.
Being at the beginning of summer the Classic is an ideal opportunity for sponsors to showcase their products, and being half way between Melbourne and Sydney and 2 to 3 hours drive from Canberra ensures a good turn up of both competitors and spectators.
The event generates great publicity throughout the SUP, wave sailing and kite surfing media as well as coverage and exposure, both locally and nationally. Seabreeze forums buzz with the hype before and after each event, Seabreeze.com.au has been awarded “Australia’s Most Popular Watersports Website” with over 500,000 visitors every month. KITE Mag & SUP Mag,along with WIND Mag and SUPWORLD Magazine had extensive coverage of last year’s event, as well as actively promoting the event during the year. We supply event footage for Channel 10’s Sports Tonight.
The Programme is sent out as an inset in local south coast papers and receives extensive radio coverage.
The support of sponsors has been overwhelming and Merimbula Sailboard Club, through the event, has encouraged all participants to support those sponsors. We hope that you benefit from association with such a popular event held at the start of the surfing/sailing/kiting season.
