Just looking at the add it says physio and massage assessment , so if you turn up with a stiffy, what's the chance of a rub down or do they assess it?

Foiled again , Sir V
It looks like no-one cares about your wind powered pogo stick.
Sorry.

typical attitude for people that haven't tried a foil yet.We get new people foiling every week on our local and they are loving it. No more long faces when its 10knts.

Have you not learned anything yet? You bag someone's stoke and you're immediately promoted to Idiot Status. You really need to do better than this..
Next time I bag you, remind me 
Is this going to be one of those events that if you turn up with a foil, you might just win a 'world title'?

Very likely mate... but you've got to start somewhere. I have no intentions of racing at this stage as I don't consider myself anywhere at an appropriate level, and I don't want to be the guy in the middle tangling up all the champs lines eheheh. But for me it's an opportunity to see how it's actually done, lots to learn.
Everyone will have their reasons - me? I'm going for the fun and the experience. Great reason to visit a new town. I'm a waves nut and flat water turns my insides out but the learning content will be invaluable. I can't get that kind of exposure to the high levels of riding ability where I live
And the beer, there's always the beer..
We are all pretty stoked that guys like Johnny Heineken, Julien Kerneur, Maxime Norcher, Bryan Lake… are coming to Oz for the event.
These guys can kite
Hey V
That looks like toe side foiling in your pic, I think that qualifiers you for racing. The best place to learn is on the course, give it crack mate.

You're right :).. I'm a strictly directional rider, don't even like TTs as I end up riding them toeside as well. But riding on a course in toeside is not quite the same mate.

And I hear Damien Le Roy is coming too.. funny antics in TSV are in for sure :)
Sealink Ferrys has just confirmed the sponsorship of the long distance race from Magnetic Island to Townsville. We will also race against the Ferry.$3000 worth in price money and prices will be up for grabs for this event.
