State Championships results

Any news on the final results for the womens freestyle in the WA state champs, I thought their heats were finished before the event was cancelled???

To all WA Freestyle State Titles riders,

Thank you for taking part in the event on 3rd-4th February and for being so helpful in setting up and packing down; your help was central to the success of the event.

Although we completed many heats before being blown off the water on the Sunday, unfortunately too few rounds were completed to be able to determine positions for the Maters, Open and Juniors . The draws as they stand will be uploaded to the WAKSA website soon for you to see how you did go.

Shannon Ducker made the conditions look easy putting in an excellent performance in the Women’s Final. The Women’s results were 1. Shannon Ducker 2. Jessica van den Berg 3. Chrissy Gaudieri 4. Sue Anderson.

WAKSA regrets to inform you that the remainder of the event will not be run. This is for two reasons;

1.On the back of Kitestock and all the other events this eason we simply do not have the human resources to run another day.

2.The weekend forecasts are becoming steadily less promising.

I’m not sure whether this news will sadden the Competitors or the Committee more; we understand you will disappointed not to known definitively where you came, and we are frustrated that all the time and effort spent on the event has not produced a result, and that due to a lack of manpower we cannot deliver the remainder of the event.

We trust despite being disappointed you can appreciate WAKSA’s position.

On a brighter note please remember this; WAKSA possesses the wherewithal to stage all manner of competitive and social events, we merely lack the manpower! This presents an excellent opportunity for you as a WAKSA member: if you have an event you want to see happen, put your hand up to champion it and WAKSA will happily provide you with the infrastructure and all the advice you need in relation to organisation, management, and permits. Just email waksa@waksa.org.au to get involved.

Thank you again for making the event as great as it was. With your enthusiasm and support WAKSA can only grow bigger and better!

Your WAKSA Committee
