Organizing competitions sucks!!!
Well done to the SUPSA for putting this event on.
PS I couldn't give a Flying f##k about the dollar, I'm paddling for self reward!!
6days a counting
give money to all...or give the sup feeling to all
Like it or loathe the decision, we do our best to make everyone happy!
Looking forward to having an ale with you after the race Chrispy!
i will paddle it next year the way my arm is healing
mac and chrispy just want to some carnage at the finish line- sicko's.
that's what bop races are for.
i spectating is free except for these two. make them pay i say
Here's the forecast as of this morning. Flat water paddle Saturday compared with perfect Downwind conditions on Sunday. If this forecast holds, can the date be changed by 24 hours? Surely everyone who enters an ocean race wants to have good wind behind them? I wouldn't want to be a race organizer!
Looks like the event is postponed due to rough and dirty conditions.Oh well gives me another week to train
IMPORTANT UPDATE
“12 TOWERS OCEAN SUP RACE” 2013
Due to unfavourable forecasted dangerous ocean conditions, floating debris, water contamination and beach erosion, we will be postponing this year's event from this coming Saturday 2nd February to the following Saturday 9th February. We have been strongly advised by the Gold Coast City Council Life Guard Service to postpone the race which has helped in making this important decision.
Safety is our main priority at SUPSA and we won't risk or endanger participants in any organised SUPSA event.
For those who have made travel arrangements or have changed work obligations, the race organisers of the 12 Towers Ocean SUP Race sincerely apologise for the change but unfortunately we can't predict the weather.
We encourage all competitors to support our judgment and welcome your support on Saturday 9th February.
Cheers
Peasey
