Top 2 surfers in each heat will advance.
Heats will run between 10 to 12 minutes each – depending on the number of entires received.
Priority rules will be in effect and there will be only ONE PERSON PER SET OF WAVES ALLOWED.
Any “snaking” of another surfer’s set will result in disqualification.

You will need to be at Laurier Park (Story Land Valley Zoo) at 8:30 AM
Follow the signs to the Boat launch parking area.
We will then load you and your board up for the shuttle to Terwilliger Park.

The RACE will start at approximately 9:30 AM from Tewilliger Park.
It is 15.75 km long. Water in a hydration pack of some sort is a good idea.
The fastest RACE people will be done in a time around 1:25.
The FINSIH LINE this year will be the base of the LOW LEVEL BRIDGE (Metal bridge right before the Edmonton Queen River Boat).
This will give you enough time to position your self for a TAKE OUT BEFORE the Riverboat. There will be staff to help you out over the few rocks and then up the boat launch ramp. NOTE – This is different than years past where we exited behind the Riverboat.
You will then be shuttled back to Laurier Park for the Awards and BBQ.
