Riders briefing is tomorrow morning, sounds like they are planning on running on the 24th with the wind expecting to ramp up next week.
Cheers

So happy they are putting this together. There are alot of ladies out there that kill it and deserve more attention and credit. Glad to see a big air competition in place where they can shine. Good luck to all and stay safe. I really hope someone can capture some decent video of the event.

Yes, looks like a good day, I did a long downwinder late yesterday and then it blew all night (see chart from Bloubergstrand), will maybe be down a little around midday today, then should come back strong this afternoon, and the swell is big today. If you wear a DECAY hat I could find you on the beach, I'll probably stop by on my downwinder this afternoon.

At beach now, looking like a great day ahead.
In a grey WOO cap Hugh, and I'll be organising Su's Airush Kites.
