Winter Downwinder in Perth - Reverse Snapper Run Sunday 9 Aug, 2020

The first time (to my knowledge) surfski paddlers have paddled this iconic course in reverse. A howling NNE in proper storm conditions, 30 knots plus with 40 knot squalls, 4m + swell............UNREAL!! A few of my regular crew and I joined local Ozone Australia agents Gordon Stimson and Adam Fahey and some of their Hurricane Paddling OC1 crew for a Stimo guided adventure. It was bloody good fun!!

You make it look so relaxed!

[@daz-downwindpaddleactionz1551]

Staying relaxed helps me stay connected with my ski and the conditions Mark. Also makes it easy to smoothly transition from tapping along to powering up to catch and link runs. Relaxed, patient, smart, measured paddling are the things I learnt from my mate Oscar..........
