Congrats to all the Suppers - especially JB for no 3!
Spewing I had to miss it - definitely be back next year.
Yeah another great event and as always its great to catch up with mates from all around Australia and to make a whole bunch more mates on the way!! the best thing about this comp is everyone is a winner as we all get to surf all day every day
Thanks Steve for showing us around and taking us to a few new spots, it's always great to go on a few road trips with a whole bunch of mates who all want the same thing!!
Also thanks to all the guys and girls who filmed and took pic's, it must be so hard to stand there and watch all those waves go past!!! big thumbs up!!!!
cheers AC or Jacko
Yeah Laurie glad you could make it. What a hoot hey, and I had to miss half of it!
One correction-
Balmoral Paddle Surf Beach to Bar Sup Off
Serious 12'6 max - Team Naish
Not so serious 14' max - Team Fanatic
What an awesome event, damn hard work getting back to work. Thanks to everyone! You rock, Especially Katie for taking my crap on her first mambo back in 4 years.
AA,
Isn't it Serious 14' max and Not so serious 12'6" max.
But yes Team Fanatic came across the line 2nd over all, but 1st in 12'6" class.
JB
Awesome event with a massive SUP turn out, really great to see the sport taking off with amazing events such as the Corona bringing SUP on board.
The huge amount of demoing going down at the event and number of non stand up paddlers having a crack on the boards can only help to increase awareness and promotion of this fantastic sport.
Check out how the Stand Up Paddle Demo Tour went at the Corona, we also have links to some great videos from Matt@reflex films,
