|
|
For anyone that hasn't heard, US Nationals are coming up June 11-15 in Worthington, MN.
New for this year: Slalom Racing will be included at Worthington this year. Slalom is one of the most exhilarating and accessible forms of windsurfing so everyone is welcome to enter, from Pros to First Timers. Slalom Racing will be an additional discipline run at separate times from Course Racing (Formula, Kona, Open, and Sport Fleets), so course racers may also register to compete on Slalom. Fleets for Slalom and sub-divisions will be assigned in accordance with registration.
As always, music will also be a large part of the festivities. "Through dogged determination and a devil-may-care-attitude we have stretched our imagination and budget to rustled up some of the finest musical entertainment ever provided to Windsurfers. The evenings on Sailboard beach will be memorable! Opening ceremonies Wed. musical lineup will include Ray Wylie Hubbard. Ray Hubbard from Austin Texas has recently appeared on the David Letterman Show. The main sound stage will power up on Wednesday and there will be music every night.

I believe Kona One Design boards & rigs are still available for charter at Worthington for the Nationals.
Contact Mike Fox <fleet-8@juno.com> about Kona charters.
I'll be there, racing in the Kona fleet. |

Right in Del - thank you for the reminder about charter equipment. That makes it very easy for someone to hop in and race!
For those looking at flights, the twin cities airport is about 3 hours from Worthington and Sioux Falls, SD is under an hour. |
