Worlds

Over twelve hours of competition at Santa Cruz today. Surf was still 2 metre plus but the wind had dropped making it more managable. All Irish had multiple heats but as it stands now we are all out of the main open comp. Top 16 will compete tomorrow man on man format from here on in. We have a final chance to pull something out in the reps of our respective age divisions tomorrow.
Some savage close outs today and one ski broken in half!
More news soon!!

Ocean Addicts Coaching & Development week

Here is some footage from the recent Ocean Addicts waveski & surf kayak coaching camp. Really good group of people on the course so made it a very enjoyable week. The footage is from sessions where students were working on various skills such as getting air, cut backs and re-entries. Plenty of spills so we know they were trying! Thank you again to everyone involved for making it a great week. Look out for the upcoming feature on kayaksurf.net from their roving reporter Pete Copp who has some quality pictures too!
