Sunday saw some epic conditions in the north of Waterloo Bay for round 6 of Bayside Sailboards' Slalom Series. Six races were completed in 25 to 30 knots of northerly wind.

There was some serious chop for the sailors to contend with but they made it look easy with smiles all round as they came off the water. Bayside is having a brilliant season of slalom so far with five foil slalom rounds and two regular fin slalom rounds completed to date.

A good contingent of young sailors has also emerged and are giving the old guard a good run for their money. We look forward to the season recommencing after the Christmas break.
