The Course shall be as detailed in the diagram(s)
Note 1: The layout of the competition arena, including the beach setup relative to the positioning of the buoys, may be adjusted dependent upon the prevailing surf, sweep, and beach conditions.
Note 2: There is no ski leg in the U14, U15 and U17 age Ironman and Ironwoman.
Note 1: The layout of the competition arena, including the beach setup relative to the positioning of the buoys, may be adjusted dependent upon the prevailing surf, sweep, and beach conditions.
Note 2: The turning flags are to be set by the Referee or their delegate considering water conditions at the time of a race e.g., the turning flags should be set back up to about 5 metres from the water’s edge in the event of a steep drop off into the water and/or a heavy shore dump for safety, fairness, and practicality. However, on a flat beach and/or little wave surge, the turning flags may be placed at the water’s edge or in the water to minimise the run distance. The swim and board start and changeover line may be placed on the beach or in the water depending on conditions and the placement of the turning flags.
