So far in 2009

Surf ski demo day

We organised Wellingtons first Surf ski demo day on January 20, 2009 which was held in conjunction with the better than tv twlilight kayak Series run by Shane Ross.

A big thanks to Rob and Hans from Fergs kayaks for their time and providing the Epic skis and stand up paddle board for demos, thanks to Dave Hicks and all the other paddlers on the night who provided support, encouragement and feedback from the night, also Oskar Stielau from Fenn kayaks NZ for providing Great sales and service for myself and all the other Wellington paddlers who have bought skis in the past as well.

When it comes to you next surfski purchase don't be afraid to ask to try out any surf skis to make it easier to find the one that best suits you, just ask any surfski paddler if you can try theirs out after a race or training session. Fergs kayaks Wellington have demo skis available during business hours also.

The next Wellington Surf ski demo day will be in November/Decemeber 2009
