Hi Rusta,
Sorry, no * spare * RACER T shirts left. Seems like a few people grabbed the wrong size, so next year your t shirt will be in a bag with your # on, to prevent any confusion!
Please refer to the attached final results.
The attached results have been compiled from over 700 finish line photographs, video, two finish teams and the available Iridium Yellow Brick data (which was not as we expected). Thank you to our experienced and very professional start and finish teams for a great job under difficult conditions. For 2013 we will continue to strive to find a system that can finish 110 kite racers in real time.
Thank you for your support and here's to 2013!
Tim Turner
Well done Johnno, a hard fought race. Couldn't agree more with you on not making mistakes. You need a good clean start to avoid the crowd to get clean air and water.
I fell a badly twice with my front foot coming out of the strap. I was lucky to weave through the start after beginning 20 deep, a few close calls but I survived.
I'm sure the video might show a huge dive boat getting a little too close for comfort..... fun fun fun and all part of racing from Rotto.
thanks to all the organisers, Redbull, Tim, the WAKSA crew and all the other races for coming along.
Johnno, time to start training again. the ledge to lancelin is on soon. WOHOOO...![]()
Is the individual break down of the Iridium Yellow Brick data going to be emailed to all the competitors?
It's a quiet night at work ![]()
I hope I got it right.

- you must be stocked after some good training on Melville water. Go the Melville race Boyz 1,2 & 4 -
Still a little disappointed not to know my result, and no responses to my other post - so if you happen to remember crashing into my green Naish Park on the beach at the finish line (domino effect) and apologised afterwards, could you let me know where you placed so I can get an idea...
Really enjoyed watching the L2L come over the horizon and into Leighton. Fantastic event, congrats to organisers and participants.
What if?
A Leighton to Lighthouse took place at the same time. Too much chaos mid way? Would be slightly more upwind and challenging. Timing mechanism already in place at each end. Ferries in place, great pub in place, probably good wind. Tell me I'm dreaming....
Yellow Brick Tracking.
I'm sure everyone is interested in reviewing the YB tracking information, so, here it is!

Here is the track from 6th place ![]()
Getting closer to the finish the excitement must have been reason to go faster

Interesting
Just checked out 2011 results
The top 23 place getters this year were equal to or better than last years 1st place time of 28:45
Although 2010 only seen 5 people under that time
Poor Pilot Pete. Taken out yet again . Fortunately( for me) no video footage of this one-or is there?
Will he hat trick in the LOC??
