The organisers will send out messages to the group with info on briefings, start times, wind conditions etc.
Please keep it as a one-way communication (organisers to competitors) at this stage. Anyone who spams the group will need to buy a round of beer at the bar on Saturday night.
This is a great tool of communication thanks James. i can confirm Max our newly adopted Aus has confirmed he will be racing and also doing a clinic over the weekend as part of this event. forcast is looking epic so dont think about it just do it life is to short to miss fun times like this.

The state slalom trophy up for grabs. some incredible history here dating back to 1988 with some legends of the sport on it. Brad love to see you here champion,
Great turnout today for Day 1. First up was a 30 minute freerace in a 15 knot nor'easter, then 6 rounds of slalom in gusty conditions up to 25 knots. Max and Byron with 3 wins each so far.
Plenty of sore bodies tonight. Let's do it all again tomorrow! Briefing 9am, first possible freerace 10:15am.
Just a reminder to join the WhatsApp group to get updates on race times etc throughout the weekend. Seems to be working well so far despite patchy mobile coverage here.
Thanks for the prompt results James and massive thanks to you, Byron, Murray & Steve for putting together a fantastic event. Great wk end was had by all, both competitors and enthusiastic participants alike. Stay tuned for some video action wrap up courtesy of the Slalom champion himself, Max Gaubert, who has generously put some footage together for us. Be back in touch
Fantastic event. Loads af quality racing at a quality location. Used every piece of equipment I owned. Thanks to the organising and race team for putting on such a great show. Already looking forward to next year.
Congrats! Wow Dezza you lucky bugger winning the door prize! Let me know when you're going up if you want company to sail.. Great weekend. I just pleasure sailed but it was a terrific place with great company and challenged my sailing.. Ps remind me not to annoy you until you dull that fin down a bit..
Top shots! How did you get them? Are they Nic's? Boy that lens must be good..It was so far away..I gave my camera to the start boat but they had their hands full..
fantastic photos!! just to add my thanks to the organisers for this weekends gps/slalom racing, you put in a lot of time in the preparations to make it a fun time for us all. It was great to meet some more people from around the NSW gps community. An event like this provides support to all levels of sailors and encouragement to keep improving. I really enjoyed the gps freeraces with everyone on same water and in same wind conditions, also the slalom racing was very exciting, plenty still for me to learn, but I got a lot out of this weekend. I hope more girls sign in for next year and this weekend can keep running for years to come.
Thanks to the marmong sc team for a epic championship. Everything was awesome from the NOR and course location and start line length and challenging course.
We cant control the weather but we got perfect conditions which really tested the sailors .
Thanks to all the competitors for their good cheer.
Ps remind me not to annoy you until you dull that fin down a bit..
