Surf n' Sea Race

The beginning of this month was the SUP into Summer race -- a 4 mile course race in the same location where we teach lessons.

Nate did great-- getting into the Top Ten male racers and being able to do a second race to compete for money prize.

I got fourth of the women, with our instructors getting 1st and 3rd (go Rainbow Watersports team!)

Afterward was a keiki division.

Kezia wanted to join, and guess what? So did Ivy, our girl who hasn't ever wanted to paddle before. (She always just wanted to be towed -- a very "Ivy" thing to do). So Ivy's first experience paddling was in a race. And she did great! Now she loves it.
