Ideas for races

Just been brain storming about races that would be fun, was wondering what kinds of races everyone would like to paddle in

Also if there are people here who have hosted races, what are some important steps that should be focused on?

Stage race as in bike racing. Downwind stage, upwind stage, sprint stage, flat water stage. See who takes the overall. Be interesting to see if the same couple of paddlers would dominate every stage.

The Tahitians came over last year and hosted this sweet rudderless race. It was in surf contest format triangle course, with four man heats. The four races started on the water raced the triangle and then came into the beach and ran up to the finish line. Top two advance to next round. It was a lot of fun.
