The Team at Ocean Addicts
Thank you to all the crew at OA, "it was the best race I've been involved in for 2012"
Can't wait for next year
Great to see so many more new faces racing and having a really great time! Really shows that SUP is growing faster than ever!!
Especially being in the females race it was fantastic to see everyone pushing themselves in the choppy surf.
Thanks Ocean Addicts for a fun race hope to see you next year
