5. The Shelby Taylor Story
Heat Score - 62
We've got a really special piece written by Shelby Rose Taylor - a Rogue athlete and SUP racer hailing from Kentucky of all places. From being on track to playing soccer at the Olympics, to battling the lowest troughs of depression and finding herself again through SUP, Shelby's tale is an inspirational one.

Last week we had 7 very special guests here at Supconnect - Judie Vivian and the Schweitzer SUP clan - Shawneen, Matty, Zane, Shelby and Elena (Matty's fiance). They came to discuss Stand Up For The Cure - the world's biggest SUP charity event targeting the fight against breast cancer, taking place this weekend - May 3, 2014.

2. Steven Tyler SUP'S
Heat Score - 77
It's funny how tabloids can turn something as pure and fun as paddle boarding into a riveting story, full of explosive adjectives and hyberboles. Aerosmith frontman, Steve Tyler, was on holiday in Hawaii with his family and the Daily Mail managed to turn him going for a cruise into a tale of woe, adversity and chronic pain.
