Looks like tough conditions over in Hawaii. Well done to the champion Clint Robinson I think there would be plenty of people who might argue that he is the greatest paddler of all types ever Olympic gold medallist in the K1, 13 Aussie surf ski tittles and multiple Molokai wins pretty impressive. Also a big well done to the Kiwis Mike Walker 10th, Simon Longdill 17th Neil Taylor 28th Pete Dallimore 35th and Chris 'Snowy' Smith 45th congratulations and hope to see you racing back in NZ soon.

Good luck to everyone doing king of the harbour the premier surf ski and sup race in NZ. for the first time in history a paddling project member is not racing tomorrow. A bit of a hole in both Kate and my year hope everyone gets the results they deserve. Looks like it maybe a bit of a slog. I guess it's worth thinking about being conservative through the first half of the race and tray Nd work with some other paddlers.
