SYDNEY, Australia - Suplove SUP Invites everyone to the "Suplove SUP Challenge" on Saturday the 6th of October, 2012!
For the last 6 years Avalon Beach Surf Life Saving Club has run The Lion Island Challenge. This is a 14km ocean ski paddling race at Palm Beach NSW, Australia which incorporates the iconic ‘Lion Island’ in Pittwater. The race attracts some 150 to 200 competitors and is widely regarded as one of the best races on the Australian ocean ski racing calendar.
In the previous 2 years the event has also included an 8km SUP board race around Lion Island. This year Suplove SUP has come on board to carry on the tradition and take the lead in managing this part of the event which is now being called the "Suplove Sup Challenge". By doing so, Suplove hopes to attract the first time racer and the elite paddler and aims to build this race into a "must do" on the annual Sydney SUP calender.
