- Specifications from Eilat: ANY WAY EVERYONE MEETS AT 9AM at “MIFRATZ ASHEMESHE- Sun bay”!

- Down winder general rules:
• Have your group of 5 “butterflies” of the same sport ready, signed in, and rigged with rash guards and leis(please try to make up your group with different levels, make sure you have one “butterfly” in the group who is experienced with down winders and she will be the leader);
• The group will need to stick together the entire way. It is not a competition! You should wait for the slowest group member and follow her down as one. This gathering is designed to encourage women and support one another. Remember to respect your limits and if you are tired tell to the lead of your group and make your group plan to safety. Safety includes “angels”, Jet Ski, beach or boat.
