With the ever-increasing explosion of foiling into the sailing community Australian Sailing is working to develop programs and resources to support sailors and clubs to get involved in this new and exciting space. One of the first initiatives is the development of FOIL-LABs which are day long introductory sessions allowing participants to experience and learn about foiling. FOIL-LABs provide a safe space for sailors to learn and interact with a new type of sailing experience and equip themselves with new knowledge to take on foiling classes. Sailors will learn the fundamentals that drive a hydrofoils performance, as well learn about the body and physical relationships that offer a path to mastery. Mastering the basics gives more options to have more fun, more often. It also allows sailors to chase performance in a range of modern performance sailing classes in a fun and fulfilling way. Australian Sailing is pleased to be able to offer a number of Foil Labs across the country. Contact your Australian Sailing State General Manager to express interest and find out more!

¿¿¿Y qué pasó en la vuelta de obligado??? Se libre la gran batalla contra el plan anglofrancés para dominar el río Uruguay y tener libre navegación del Paraná. Juan Manuel de Rosas, sin una fuerza naval competente para hacer frente a la intromisión extranjera, dispuso la instalación de baterías próximas a San Pedro, provincia de Buenos Aires, en la conocida Vuelta de Obligado. Este lugar estratégico en la orilla occidental del Paraná es un recodo barrancoso con escasos 40 metros de profundidad y unos 700 metros de ancho. El combate se inició al amanecer del día 20 de noviembre de 1845, con un intenso cañoneo y fuertes descargas de cohetes sobre las baterías argentinas. El combate duró siete horas durante las cuales la intensidad del fuego. Esta Batalla es un hito en la formación de nuestra historia como Nación, porque unidos por la férrea convicción de la defensa y salvaguarda de nuestro territorio, los argentinos demostramos ser un país joven pero maduro en sus creencias. Aún en desigualdad de fuerzas y sin la tecnología de guerra que los extranjeros desplegaron en los frentes, la defensa nacional resistió, con el honor de quien por amor y patriotismo elige anteponer su vida antes que la libertad de un compatriota.
