Find yourself, read the course, answer four questions. About a minute, and you need it done before you go on the water.
Start typing. If you are entered at this Cup you will be in the list.
Late entry, a substitution, or entered under a different spelling.
The marshal sees you as a walk-up so they can check you against the entry list.
The course, before the questions
The rules under the map say everything the map labels do.
Out through Lane 2, home down Lane 1. Practice is one way and nobody rows against it.
The slalom is identical in both lanes. Lane 1 does not mirror Lane 2. Row it exactly as drawn.
The inner zone is refuge only: being overtaken, breakage, or retiring.
Turn at the turn buoys only, never at a slalom buoy. To keep rowing, do the full loop and swing back into Lane 2 near the shore.
Clear the beach the moment you land, boats back to their stations.
The dashed box is for isolated race entries only: run in, board, sit ready. No strokes away from the shore.
If you swamp or capsize, stay with the boat. Keep the crew together, put a hand up, and wait. The safety boat is on the water before any crew launches and it comes to you.
Drag to move around the map. Close to go back to where you were.

You are cleared
One optional extra
Our commentary team builds the story of the weekend from what athletes tell them. This is entirely optional and you can skip it.
Only enter things you are comfortable having shared publicly in the context of this event.
Anything you write here may be read out by the commentators or shown on a screen. Leave anything blank that you would rather keep to yourself.
All done
Show this to the beach marshal if they ask. The in-person briefing on the beach still covers the day's conditions before you go out.
