GCSUPC - GREAT EVENT!

MAHALO FOR AN AMAZING EVENT!

What an AWESOME Race!!! With some of the greatest paddlers from all over the country, the Gulf Coast Stand Up Paddle Board Championship went off without a hitch. Thank you to everyone who paddled, volunteered or sponsored. We couldn't have asked for better weather and a better group of paddlers to participate. It's so amazing to watch this sport grow and to watch the community support our efforts in bringing Stand Up Paddle Boarding to Florida waters. Congrats to Slater Trout from Maui who at the ripe age of 15 took home the title of our Men's Elite 9 Mile Paddle Board Champion in the 12'6" division. Brandi Baksic from San Clemente, CA took home top honors as she paddled her way to 1st Place in the 9 mile Elite Women's division.
