Gen is joined by Myles, Blake, Charlotte and Lara for the official States Wrap Up pod! Day 1 is covered in depth with plenty of chat about the highs, lows & a few edgy takes on the WD4- and CMO4- races...

(P.S. We were having some teething issues with our audio, so the volume levels may be a little off - bear with us while we learn how to record!!)

FYI regarding PROTESTS - If you think something has been unfair during your race and you want to lodge a protest, raise your hand once you've crossed the finish line to speak to an Umpire on the water and have your opinion heard! If you can't wait or haven't noticed the issue yet, you can lodge a protest in the 30 minutes after the race result has been published online - if you wait any longer, it won't be a valid protest, and the Umpires won't be able to help you!!
