SPSC 10 Foot Plus Comp (MAKE UP DATE)

MAKE UP DATE FOR 2nd SPSC Ten Foot Plus comp

Palm Beach (with alternate locations available in case of weather),
Sunday 21 May
Starting 7am, first heat scheduled to hit the water at 7:30 

**** UPDATE MAY 16 ****

JB’s super long range SPSC forecast for Sunday 21st May - 10’ plus.

Wednesday is bringing some rather large swell accompanied by strong south winds. This with the continued long period east swell we’ve had now for weeks, will make things wild leading into the weekend. However, Huey has set the dial to back off Saturday afternoon, preparing Palmy for some excellent contestable conditions on Sunday. A light NW wind in the morning moving to the SW and strengthening to moderate around midday will make for clean faces in the 2-4’ range. The East swell still present means there’ll be wave at South if we need to setup south of the rocks.

A super early low should have heats starting on a mid-tide as it rises to a 1.41m high at 9:34am. Small tides will keep things consistent throughout the event time.

Winter is near, temps falling short of the 20’s with a potentially chilly start in single digits (bring your jacket, beanie and uggs). But clear skies will set an amazing scene of clean, powerful waves perfectly timed with high tide.

GET REGISTERED!

Look forward to seeing you there

And our standard Ten Foot Plus comp details:

• There is no heat progression, every surfer will ride twice earning points for a final position 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 7:20am riders briefing and 7:30am potential start. Given smooth running of heats this will have things wrapped up by noon.
• All general surfing rules, common sense and good sportspersonship are expected at all times.

It is going to be an awesome year.....yewwwww
