Namotu World Paddle Challenge 2012
Having kicked off the 2012 season at the end of 2011, the Namotu World Paddle
Challenge presented by Air Pacific will become a unique invitational this year, featuring 25 of the World's best Stand Up Paddlers taking part in the now legendary and gruelling downwinder from Natadola Beach to Namotu, the challenging Surf Slalom at Namotu and the Tourism Fiji Surf exhibition event to cap off a week full of adventure in Fiji.
The week will once again be hosted by none other than Dave Kalama and build on the prestige established in 2012, where Connor Baxter stormed to victory in the Long Distance, Kai Lenny in the Surf Slalom, with the Final tie breaker allowing Connor to edge ahead of Kai for the overall win, and allowing Slater Trout his victory run ahead of Australia's up and coming Jake Jensen.
Stay tuned for the show now airing worldwide and to come as a download on itunes shortly.
