I'm planning on running a very casual wave comp at Long Reef one day soon, probably on a good southerly as we get a few days notice to get everyone together. I'm wanting to know who would be interested?

This would be a first for me to run one so its a learning thing too, I'm sure there will be arguments about scoring and stuff like that so I propose to use the method of 10 mins sessions and the rider nominates the wave they want scored. a few riders out on the water at the same time but not too many with a reasonably small comp area.

I'm unbiased to strapped, unstrapped or twintips but if you are are busting out unstrapped backrolls on waves it will of course score higher.

If you want prizes then I'd have to charge a small entry fee but I don't think we need to get into all that at the moment.

It is meant to be a fun thing to help people push themselves a little bit and to see some good wholesome crashes.. er action.

This will also be posted up on the Northern Beaches Kitesurfers page on facebook www.facebook.com/pages/Northern-Beaches-Kitesurfers/239156642800936?ref=hl

the event will probably be run from there as i can manage it from my phone and send out messages.

so who's keen?

I'll come up with a posse of local wave kiters. Sounds like fun to me, I'll bring a stocked esky of chilled beers for all to enjoy...

Great idea pete
I'll do photos....

count me in Pete! No prizes or entry fee sounds good. So does that esky full of beer. Sure you want to run heats instead of a expression session kind of format?? Either way should be fun, will try to get some other south Sydney boys up north with me.

Dare say a few of the Stockton crew would be keen also!

There is a cool way to have a casual comp

Just have heats with 2 or 3 videos filming the waves

No semis or finals

Just majority vote for the best wave over a few beers

Peanut...
Interest is there,
What next...?

We would have several keen people from central coast!

Happy to help where ever i can.

I'm keen to give it a bash. Just returning to Sydney full time on the 15th Jan after 5 years away and only started kiting while away so would be great to meet some local kiting fraternity and get the lay of the land so to speak. Can't promise to impress but will give it my best.

Sounds good, lets do it!
