A few hot tips to help you prepare!
- Get your bag organised the night before, create a checklist for yourself to ensure you have everything you might need.
- We recommend not trying a different breakfast meal - stick with what works for your body to ensure you have a 'happy' stomach.
- When you arrive at Cronulla Beach, to start studying the surf as you do at every CanToo coached beach session. Have a look where the buoys are placed.
- Be ready for the coaches briefing and pre-race warm up to clear any jitters. This is the time to test your goggles are clean and snug.
- If you are starting in a later wave, try to limit your sun exposure and stay hyrdrated.
