SUP VIC utilizes the Blast Race Management System courtesy of Blast Paddlers
Another season is over, and a fantastic combination of races this year. With the inclusion of the SUP-A Vic Open on the Mornington Peninsula, and the Outlaw Paddling Battle of Barwon Heads on the Bellarine Peninsula, the series is really shaping to be a Victorian series, rather than just races on Port Phillip bay.
We will be holding a presentation night and end of season social gathering shortly to recognise our winners, but also the achievements of everyone who has posted their own little personal victories. We will also be scrutinising the series and looking for ways to improve the format and divisions next season, as well as the timing and location of events. Rest assured, the Flat Water Series will be back later this year…
Anyway, thank you to our series partners, Surfing Victoria, Blast Race Management System, The Zu, PSUPS, Sup-HQ, SHQ, Outlaw Paddling / Peak Adventure, RPS The Boardstore, plus the hard work and commitment of the SUP VIC committee and volunteers from the broader membership. Also shout-outs to Phil Page (Sea Me Surf) and White Caps Photography for their amazing photos, Shaun Carew for always being on-hand to help with safety, or just to chop up the water to make it interesting (!)
– Tim Patterson & Paul Harrington, Flat Water Series Directors.
After the completion of the 2012-13 series, here are the final standings for the Flat Water Series, by Division:
