Slalom Rules & Guidelines

The Irish Slalom Series is probably the easiest and most enjoyable way to improve your windsurfing. Running Fun, Silver and Gold fleets on each of our weekends in many locations across the Country in 2014 provides the perfect opportunity for everyone to get involved.

Competing in the Irish Slalom Series allows you to meet other windsurfers from around the country and visit some of the most beautiful and wind filled destinations this country has to offer.

The series is continually welcoming new participants from beginner to winner so if you can stand on a board, attempt to gybe, why not get involved. You'd be mad not too!

A BIG thank you to Nick and all the Downings windsurfing event Crew for running a brilliant event.

Ranging in ages form 5 to 70 in Fun races, longboard races and even managed a few downwind slalom races - thanks to Ciaran's persistence. Thanks again to everyone involved and to all the competitors who took part. Look forward to seeing you all again next year.
