Thinking ahead to summer...
I know next year is a long way off but I thought I'd get this in your calendars now if anyone is interested.
I thought I'd organise a point to point race around the Kapiti coast. There's a few longboarders up here now and with the crew from Wellington only an hour away has the potential to be a good event.
I can probably find a couch or two and definetely plenty of tent space.
How about it?
Anyone keen to sponsor prizes?
Anyone keen to help out, perhaps with to coaching/clinics (slide? safety? slalom?)


I call shot gun on being safety coach
Im a very safe person you see!
SEET
Very good call Joe. If im still in the country im definatly keen as to help out and also race. keep us posted.
P.s. I can assist im being a safety officer, as i firmly belive a safety meeting/briefing is very important to the sport indeed.
BUMP!
OK folks, it's time to front up. If I get enough "Hell yeah!!!"s or "Maybe"s I'll get this organised. Let me know here or by email.
The tentative plan is at this stage is:
Saturday afternoon: P2P race
Saturday late arvo/evening: cruising and bbq
Sunday: Whatever (slide, slalom, cruise)
Thoughts or comments anyone?
HELL YEAH!!!
Who else is in????
Fo' sho
Any hills in Kapiti we can hit up? I'm still amped from ~65kph hills at the jaffa roll!
Maybe if you get in touch with hectic nice and early they might be able to sort out some prizes:
