Equipment provided as requested (in registration)
- If you can bring a boat/pdf/helmet from your club, that would be helpful. Labelling equipment reduces lost items!
- Freestyle or river boat for wave pool
- Slalom races can be done in any boat, but sharing composite boats will be fastest
- Slalom head-to-head will start on the ramp so half-slice/creek/river running boat is best
- Polo boats provided
Warm clothes for in water and dry for on-land are recommended as the air can be chilly.
Personal Water bottles will help avoid plastic use
