Hi guys, I will also be hosting a foil demo (wind permitting, only needing 8+ knots, possibly less if we have a big rig...) in the afternoon after the races!
The foil demo will be for race participants ONLY, so if you want to try foiling, sign up and join the race, let us know you're coming, enjoy the BBQ and then experience foiling!
See you all there!

Hey Adrien, I am interested in the foil demo, but no longer own slalom gear, just tiny wave gear. Any chance I can still participate in the demo?

Morrison, no restrictions on gear - run what you brung!
Adam, can you flip burgers to earn your foiling rights?
Just kidding, that is fair enough. Please fill out the registration form anyways, and just make a note that you don't have raceable gear in one of the fields.
Cheers

I've never sailed there, what gear "works"?

Other options include renting a board from Windsure! Jericho is generally averaging 10-15 knots (20-25 on the rare good day!) so a board that moves fast but keeps you afloat in lower wind is best!

Sounds more like downwind raceboard or formula rather than slalom. Cool.
