If this is your first time at Pinnaroo, come prepared for wild ocean fun. People have been sailing here for decades. Come and see why.

The breeze builds nicely and can trick you into large gear, then the SW picks up, and the chop comes from all directions. Pinnaroo is one of the most challenging locations for slalom racing in Perth.

  • A short walk from the grassed rigging area to the water
  • The course will be ~3km long with 3 gybe marks
  • Beach start or a rabbit start.
  • 3-4 races depending on the conditions and time.
This event is about bringing windsurfers together in a social gathering and promoting the location. Following the racing, there will be a BBQ provided on the grassed area where we can dish out bragging rights, immortalise the winner and discuss interest in future events here or elsewhere.
