This sounds like it was an amazing race and so, so, so close between Conner and Kai with Conner coming out on top this time.

I'm sure there will be some great vids available soon from this race around the icebergs..

Cool vids & spectacular scenery. Seems odd to me to have a World Series event in what appears to be such a remote place with bugger all spectators.

I know there has been comment on this on another thread and not taking anything away from the performance, but why have this race in a remote location?

The race footage is average and the course looks like it was put togther at the last minute using boat fenders. I'm not sure who this benefits?

As a consumer of SUP products and SUP fan I would much rather have seen these guys compete at Peru than have such a small field race in a remote location. It doesn't look good for the Race organisers - interviews are good, but the course and format looks token or half baked. Some great paddlers there, so the racing is tight - but they could have done this anywhere to a much more appreciative crowd..... or actually to a crowd.

Maybe I'm missing something here?
