I am a flat water paddler who most years could count on one hand how many downwind paddles I do. I am searching for a new ski that is not only a fast flat water ski but is manageable on a downwind when I do join my buddies. While not big conditions at 15 knots this 26km run gave me a lot of confidence that this ski could fit the brief!
The usual Snapper run is run South to North from Rockingham to Fremantle but with a winter storm coming through we had a day of northerly winds meaning we ran it in reverse, finishing on my home beach in Rockingham.
Thanks again to Will and Vanessa Lee of Epic Kayaks WA for the invite!
