For those of you who have shown an Interest in TASA (Trapeze Asymmetric Sailing Association) I am happy to say after chatting to the lovely guys at Weston we have our first event booked

17th and 18th of Feb 2007

Please keep these dates free as it should be great fun! (it is essential we get good turnouts to our first events to keep the profile up!) all entry fees cost kept to a minimum to cover the Weston fees.

be the first to win the coverted TASA trophy! We are aiming to have the Saturday as training day with Julian Pearson the 14 Race Coach providing on and off the water Clinics with a video camera for individual coaching the saturday night we have a social with the all important pub quiz!

sunday being left for racing/hangover nursing . We will also have a Photographer onsite and on the water.

(entry forms will be avaliable online from January)

Sound great guys glad to see so many people interested in our events.

Julian, Alex and Myself have all decided that instead of us choosing what the onshore clinics should be (Trapezeing etc..) As TASA is set up to help you guys, that we should get you guys to pick what you want to work on. so let us know!

Andy it would be great to have some 12's there  (right way up or upsidedown is fine ) talking of which i should be getting the photos through tonight so i'll put some up on here and the rest will be avaliable on our TASA site.

Sorry, but I've searched all over the TASA site and Forum and can't find the entry form. (Am I the only one who finds the site frustrating with all the apparently dead links in it? Perhaps its because I'm on dial-up?. Or must I be a registered member on the TASA forum before I can see it?) Can you paste the link to it here?



Posted By: olly_love

no for some reason there are dead links and i cant find the form

Good luck with the event - as a fully paid up fastsail bod, suggest that the best thing you can do is what we learned..

....place the emphasis on fun rather than who wins.  Festival sailing is the key - and makes the event stand out from other events that people attend during the season.
