Hey guys
Will there be racing this Saturday the 2nd?
Cheers

Thanks Cam
Jake and Damo will be there Saturday the 2nd. AWESOME news re the RQ grant. Happy Days
Hi Cammd is the learn to windsurf running this Saturday, if so what are the times and cost for two 9 year olds. Do they need to join the RQYS club. Also do you have sails smaller than the 3.0 mentioned at the start of this post.
thanks Derek
Hi Derek
Yes learn to windsurf is on at 9.00 am on Saturday. We have one 1.5 mtr rig. The setup for juniors was compulsory club membership in order to participate. Reason being it worked out at $17.00 per month to be a member and learning to windsurf is at no charge to members. The club generously offered to make that membership subject to cancelation at any time with no attached fee or outstanding balance to pay.
So if.you only want to attend one session the answer is yes they will need to become club members for at least one month and it will cost $17.00 dollars each. Still good value in my opinion, hope to see you there.
Cheers Cameron
Next Sat wind looks pretty strong.BTW, are there any windsurfing gear for improvers if we don't wanna bring our own? Cheers.

So for $17.00 you get four weeks (or four sessions). $4.25 per lesson, that's fantastic ! 
Hi Cam,
I am very keen to come along. I used to windsurf in Cairns on flat waters/lake about 15 years ago but recently bought a 2nd hand kit to get back into the sport in Brisbane. Can I bring my kit and start learning again this Sat if conditions are good?

Love the dryland simulator! What a great idea! 
Its a pretty useful tool, pictures above of max teaching kids a self rescue technique, later in the day they had a self rescue race paddling around a mark with the rig layed on the back of the board.
He also used it to teach the more advanced kids some fast gybing and tacking techniques on land that they later applied on the water. Pretty cool, the kids just absorb it all and go and do it.

Welcome to bring your own gear, at the moment we are.mostly focused on the basics but we are working on developing some 6 or 8 week courses that will be suited to different levels and we hope.to have them ready for next season.

HI Cameron, thanks for the info, unfortunately the youngest son broke his toe yesterday, so windsurfing is out for a few weeks. cheers Jane

Hi Cammeron
Plans for the long weekend?
After success of last Sunday My Max is keen for more. Need to indintrinate him as much as we can before BBall starts again 
Cheers Jeff
Yeah we will have a 9.00am start, conditions look awesome for learners and veterans alike, 15knts from NE is perfect.

Just a note of thanks to Max, Cameron and all others involved. Nice to meet such an accomodating bunch, the boys had a great introduction to the sport, and are looking forward to next week.
thanks again,

Hi Cameron,
Please let me know if I understand this right: I could just show up at the RQYS reception on Saturday with $15 (as adult non-member) for the windsurf lesson?
1.00 pm start on Saturday
15.00 for non members daily membership. Bookings haven't been required to date but always good for the instructors to have an idea who is coming if you can book
Hi Cameron,
I'd like to come this Saturday. Should I book with the RQYS reception (07 3396 8666)?
Thanks,
Yun
