Awesome results for Trav and Jamie with only 30 seconds between 2nd and 5th!

Also a big congratulations to Terrene Black placing 4th in the Elite Womens race!

Jamie seemed to be the only one NOT on a SIC board. At least I assume his board was one of his own, couldn't quite make it out.

Pretty sure they were all on SIC boards not sure on Dave's though!! Pretty hard to beat those boards for DW at the moment!!

Whens the big race on Molakai? I rekon JM would love to win that one on the stand up , looks as though over the longer distances Connor Baxter is very hard to beat.

Looking at that Vid it looks like everyone it that race was on a SIC board!!!!

If all the top guys do Molokai this year it will be a crazy race, I know trav has hardly even riden a SUP before with a rudder so he must be up there with conner when he get more used to the steering, i would also say if Jamie decides to do it he will be a different racer to what he was in this race as i'm sure he would have had very little training time leading up to these last races with all his other commitments. I've got my fingers crossed that i might be able to go this year and would love to be there to see it all go down!!

I can't believe the pool of talent we have paddling around in Currumbin Creek , must be something in the water.

Well done to Trav & all the Aussie's for an amazing fews weeks of racing.

Geez I would've lent him my Bullet so he could get used to them. Don't know what else I could ride to stay within sight of you guys though, maybe my Jet ski
