1. Ski Review: Custom Kayaks Apex Double

(Info/Reviews)

2. First Looks: Fenn Mako Elite

(Info/Reviews)
Author : Erik Borgnes The new Fenn Mako Elite has now been out for, what, 8 months? And, like others, I've been looking for a thorough review of the ski but haven't seen one. So, exercising fiduciary irresponsibility, I went ahead and purchased one before I had seen or paddled it.

Galvanized into action, I ma...

5. Paddler Interview: Barry Lewin

(Info/Paddler Profiles)
Author : Rob Mousley At 25, Barry Lewin is one of the younger surf ski paddlers on the circuit. He's had a pretty good season - 4th in San Francisco; 9th in Dubai; 8th in Perth; and 3rd in Plett behind Dawid Mocke and Hank McGregor.

8. Paddler Interview - Dawid Mocke

(Info/Paddler Profiles)
Author : Rob Mousley (with a little help from the Glick) ...n quickly emerges. I try to keep up, find it challenging to breathe, back off a bit, and then the World Series number three-ranked paddler vanishes into the distance.
