Hi Guys,
Just a heads up, we have set dates for the 2017 GPS/Slalom Windsurfing Series.
Online registrations will be opening on gpswindsurfing.com.au/ in the coming weeks, however, don't wait to start booking in your accommodation (particularly Myall Lakes event - https://www.myallshores.com.au)
Please see the series poster below.
Who can compete? - Anybody is welcome, regardless of your gear! (we have updated and will post sailing instructions soon)
These events are about getting people on the water having a great time sailing together. So if you have a GPS come along and sail together and have fun and enjoy the friendly company which is what the team GPS and our NSW series is all about.
As mentioned please note you MUST book Myall lakes as soon as possible as the villas are going like hot cakes.
I have pre booked all outstanding villas some time ago for us windsurfers, so you must mention you are a windsurfer and you also get 10% off including camping. The camping is fantastic on the water's edge. So don't wait book now.
To add to the Myall lakes 3 day weekend Myall shores park have been generous giving us a 2 nights accommodation lake front villa (some conditions apply). This will be given out like last year as a lucky door prize but you have to be there to be in it.
Last year at Myall lakes it was just an unbelievable place that suits the family and us windsurfers.
So mark the dates in your calendar and make a family weekend of any of the GPS events.
Great poster guys, looking forward to a top summer.
I just booked Myall Shores. Ask for Wendy and she can arrange the 10% discount. 1300 795 913.
Happy to see you there Tony.

we want it to be focused on fun.
Myall lakes accomodation is going quickly.
only 1 villa left
2 safari tents
2 spa villas
still some water front camping sites.
Ask for Wendy and she can arrange the 10% discount. 1300 795 913.
Please note that you MUST book accommodation for Myall lakes NOW.
I cannot hold the last remaining cabins from the public for much longer.
1 cabin left
1 spa villa left
2 safari tents left
Water front camping sites going fast only a few left.
Speak to Wendy and tell them you are a windsurfer for your discount.
Allot of work has gone into planning this and should be a great fun event.
Don't think about it just do it now and have a great weekend.
Great news guys. Should call it the Mid-NSW Coast GPS Series.
I'll try and make it up but can't say for sure this time.
Shame there's no Huskisson event! Last christmas....25+.
Adrian nice photo it is a top spot to sail.
It would be great if you could make it that slalom racing two years ago with you was unreal.
Yeah Byron that was special racing! I still think about how everything came together so well and everyone had an awesome day - even if I kept jumping the start!
The photo above was one of those kind of days, but windier! Got maxed on the 5.8. I remember hitting heaps of boom high ramps you get out there and doing some serious drifting. You know, I never really sail Sanctuary in a north easterly. 9/10 I'm at Husky. Much windier and more consistent and the water is stunning. Sanctuary is for the kiddies....talented kiddies at that!
I'll see what I can do about Myall...sounds like I need to think about accommodation. It would be just me so a sofa would do...just about.
Can anyone squeeze me in?
Heads up we are working on some discount accommodation options for our first event at Foster so stay tuned as this should work out so we can all stay together.
Also some potential lucky door prices and meals etc. Thanks to Arron for helping with this.
We are really working hard to make this year fantastic.

Great work Byron, lots to chose from here. To add to that list, Sandpiper on Smiths Lake is about 20min drive away from Wallis. All the information here. www.sandpiperonsmithslake.com/
I have booked a unit and have a couple of spare beds on offer, for a very reasonable price, if anyone is interested.
Be great times anyway Sue.
A reminder I will be releasing the Myall lakes accommodation(Myall shores) to the public so if you haven't booked you must as you will not be able to as the last couple remaining will go quickly.
you will then have to travel from Hawksnest every day.
Thanks Byron, just did so.
BTW the best way to do so is via this web site for Myall Shores.

Happy to announce that Max Gaubert will be doing a training talk at Foster when we are waiting for wind.
This year we have lined up some of the best racers to do educational talks about tips and improvement idears to help accelerate people's windsurfing techniques.
Max has PWA experience and won the recent Australian salom titles and has a vast list of great results, and did I mention he is French.
Max is living in Sydney and will be joining the NSW GSP series this year.
So come along enjoy the friendly atmosphere and improve you skill set.
