SUP 10+ OPEN - Event 1 - 09/10/2016 - Palm Beach

We are EXCITED to announce that the First 10+ comp for the 2016/17 season will be up at Palm Beach on Sunday 9th October. Starting at 7.10am, with first heat scheduled to hit the water at 7.45am. As this is the first contest for the season we will be renewing club memberships. So unless you have already renewed your membership online please get there a little earlier to renew on the day.

Let's start the 2016/17 season huge and get as many people down to Palmy as possible. All ages & skills are welcome!

There will be some refreshments and snacks provided on the day, included in entry/membership fee.

• Pre-registration only. Ending Saturday 8th October at 9am. Through the SPSC online booking system. (If this can be sent to me by Saturday morning, I will organize and have ready for Sunday).
• There is no heat progression, every surfer will ride twice earning points for a final positioning at the end of the 3 events.
• All competitors are expected to remain at the event site for the entire duration of the heats as judging is pre-allocated so everyone gets a turn to judge a heat.
• Heats will be 15 minutes long and run back to back, which means 3 hours total run time.
• All competitors are expected to wear leg ropes and allocated coloured rash vests.
• Boards must be over 10’ in length.
• Rides will be judged on Style, Length of ride, Positioning, Wave selection, difficulty of ride/maneuvers and all round performance. Points will be allocated in reflection to the intensity and difficulty of the moves performed.
• All competitors are expected to be at the marshalling tent around 7am, for a potential 7:20am Riders briefing and 7:30am potential start. Given smooth running of heats this will have things wrapped up by 10:30am.
• All general surfing rules, common sense and good sportspersonship are expected at all times.

There will be a lucky door prize at each event. To be eligible for the prize you must be a full member of SPSC and you must be present at the end of the day’s competition.

Everyone's welcome so please tell all your friends and family to come along. It is going to be an awesome year.....yewwwww
