March Club Day

Club Day: Sunday 13th of March

Meet up time: 8am Location: Maroochydore River Mouth.

If there is a weather change I will let you know. Otherwise I will see you there.

We are going to have a social surf and expression session. During this time we will work on 30 to 40 minute sessions where each surfer will try to acheive a certain manoeuvre. At the start of each session we will do a demo on 'how to do it' and then a social surf in which we encourage everyone to give it a go and share some tips on 'How to'.

We believe this will be fun and also help each member to try something new that they may not have done before. The manoeuvres may include (depending on conditions and who is showing what) 360' Helicopter, Floater, Power Turn, Cutback, 180' Fakie. These may change due to conditions and we welcome others to share.

See you there.

For those blowing in from the other parts of the world for Noosa, feel free to come along.

Please forward this to anyone who may be interested.

Cheers
Swanie

Lets hope not. I know a fair number are heading early to Noosa to get a park but there are also a number that should come along. The race at Noosa is for after 1pm so there should be time for both unless your sitting around loading up on carbs for the race. Parking at Noosa can be a problem though.
This is one of the reasons why we made this one an expression session. The demos should be good as always. Look forward to seeing as many as possible there but understand the clash. There is a plus and minus to the clash. The minus is a number of the crew will be heading to Noosa early and the plus is that with Noosa on there are a number of companies available to do demos up this way due to the fact they are attending Noosa.

The club Day is just 30 minutes down the road from Noosa Main Beach.

I should be down for a bit of a look. Unfortunately, no surfing for me with my knee in its current condition, so will probably just bring the alpharace 14 down for a cruise and to watch the action!

Hey Swanie, could you please post the exact meeting place. Beach side or river side? Maybe river side best with all those demo boards?

Meet at the last set of sand bags as you come in the river.

Here is a rough map. The area with the current swell should have a wave inside the river mouth and also calm area for those just wanting to try it out.

With the wind blowing ESE Best park would be at the Boat Shed Restaurant. This is at the arrow on the map above that starts in the river.

Great, see you there, I am just setting up our demo boards on the beach between the boat shed and the river mouth.
