Video from 2nd Annual Intracoastal SUP Cup now online!

It’s here!  Check out the official footage from this year’s Intracoastal SUP Cup, held at the Blockade Runner on Wrightsville Beach this past May 15.

This year’s race brought paddlers from across the eastern seaboard and beyond.  Over 60 racers competed in six divisions for cash and prizes valued over $13,000 and, of course, bragging rights till we meet again in the fall for the next race.

Our good friend Karen Wrenn was on hand the day before for a ladies only coaching session.  Seasoned racers and newcomers alike gained valuable insights from the pro on how to improve their technique and generally have more fun out on the water.

In addition, this race marked the introduction of the Waterman’s Challenge, a three-stage event pitting some of the east coast’s best kite riders and paddleboarders against each other in an off the beach relay.  This one-of-a-kind event gave beachgoers an exciting dose of fast action and athleticism.

Stay tuned to our website as we plan to release the official photography from the 2nd Annual Intracoastal SUP Cup shortly.
