Awesome Humpback Whale story from the Sea of Cortez. These amazing mammals have already arrived in the Greatbear Rainforest to feed. We will be fortunate to be paddling with Humpbacks and Fin Whales this September on our Greatbear SUP expedition this September 5-11th. The trip is fully booked. Soon i will be posting at least three dates for next summer.
SUP Wake Surfing on Okanagan Lake
The past week i have been in Vernon and Kelowna doing some SUP clinics for Kevin and Michelle at Kalavida Surf Shop. I had a chance to get out on Okanagan Lake for a little SUP Wake surf behind a wake boat. It was a lot of fun and a really good workout.

"Channel of Bones" 2011 Molokai2Oahu Paddleboard Race
I have been training now for months to prepare for this grueling, big, open ocean paddle. Nothing in Howe Sound will simulate what we will be up against. Swells of 20-30 feet are not uncommon in this downwind race. We will be paddling 14 foot displacement hull boards and boat support is required for safety. I will be flying over to Hawaii on the 28th and staying there till the 3rd. The race starts in Molokai on the 31st. I think they keep the race updated on their facebook page. We will also be paddling for Standup4Greatbear and to help support us you can donate a dollar a mile. Donate online at www.standup4greatbear.ca See the press release below for more information about the race.
