Are you coming to Joeyglide for the first time this year? Coming from overseas? Being coached for the first time? Competing for the first time? Here are a few things you need to know: 1. Narromine gets hot, really hot. Expect days over 40 degrees. It could be humid or dry heat. 2. Dress for the heat. Long sleeved cotton or quick dry shirts are best, with a collar too. Long cotton or cool pants are best as well. Really short shorts only get you sunburned legs - the harness buckles get hot enough to burn your legs. 3. Wear a good bucket hat 4. Use lots of sunscreen 5. Drink lots and lots of water. I want you drinking so much water you have to pee all day long. If not, you are not drinking enough water for the heat we are in. Start drinking water in the morning and carry a water bottle around with you, bring it to briefing, take it everywhere, refill it often, have a camelbak in the glider, drink it all every day. Buy some powered gatorade and mix it in if you like. 6. You need to be able to pee in the glider If you are unsure why, refer point 5 above 7. In contrast, the nights can be cool, so bring a jumper or coat too Any other questions, please ask Lisa
