Animal Windfest – for pro’s and beginners alike
PRESS RELEASE
Animal Windfest – for pro’s and beginners alike
The tone of the 2009 Poole-based Animal Windfest is approachability and encouragement. Keen to draw young, new, revisiting and
established windsurfers to the water, Animal introduces subsidised entry fees for competitors to ensure anyone feels welcome and
encouraged to participate.
Gary Willingham, Windfest organiser says “Animal has funded reduced entry fees this year which is perfect when this event is all
about attracting every type of watersports fan to have a go.
“It’s not all about top-level competition although this remains well represented; we have worked hard this year to provide
something for everyone.”
All entrants to the JP-Neilpryde Slalom – pro, amateur and juniors – save up to £10 on their fee which includes a free
event t-shirt, free pasta lunch on two days, entry to the ‘Masterblaster’ fun racing, and a half price Saturday night party
ticket.
‘Masterblaster’ fun racing is also up for grabs alone – an easy-going, low cost race created to epitomise the spirit
of true entry-level windsurfing. Entry is £20 which includes insurance to cover the day’s racing, and the same entry benefits
as above.
Conditions allowing, Expression Sessions will be held with the world’s best, pushing themselves to their limits to wow the crowds
on the day. Great Animal prizes will be on offer to those producing the goods out on the water!
UKWA membership is necessary for all competitions except the ‘Masterblaster’.
To encourage young and beginner adult windsurfers, the event is also hosting free taster sessions with qualified instructors from The
Watersports Academy.
For the latest news and updates on Animal Windfest to be held at Sandbanks beach, Poole, on September 11th to 13th 2009, including
