MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION
Join Windsurfing Tasmania as a social ($35) or competitor ($50) member. Social members get one free entry to WT Events. Competitors get free entry to all WT Events. Entry fee is $10 per event. For more information visit
www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/Tasmania

Entrants to WT Events must complete an Event Entry Form prior to competing and sign ON and OFF before and after every day's competition.

NOTE: All events are open to longboards, race boards, windsurfer one designs and any other type of windsurfer. Foils are also able to be used instead of standard fins. It is expected that if winds are light, sailors can choose to use foils rather than bigger boards and sails or longboards. This should make it easier to have racing completed in light winds.

Visit the Windsurfing Tasmania Forum on
www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/Tasmania
for further information.

The 26th 27th of March longboard racing event has been moved to Raspins Beach near Orford.
There are updates being regularly posted on the Southern Windsurfer Facebook page. The text below is a repost from there. This should be a fantastic event in a great sailing location. To compete and have the chance to become elsupremo of Tasmanian longboard racing you will need to be a member of Windsurfing Tas. A $35 membership will be sufficient. Most of the competors will be sailing the Windsurfer LT but most variations of longboard equipment can also be raced in a separate class.
