September Sessions SUP Event 2009

Posted January 14, 2009 by admin in Events | No comments yet

The September sessions are fast becoming Europe's premier Standup paddle surfing event.

Held annually every September the event moves around Europe attracting the best SUP riders from all corners of the world.

In 2009 the September Sessions will be held on the 26th - 27th September.

Word reaches us that it is likely that Spain will be hosting the event somewhere on its northern coast.

Expect both wave riding and distance events but also the spirit of Aloha.

In 2007 the inaugural September Sessions were held in the UK at Watergate Bay in Cornwall and doubled as the first ever SUP event in England.

In 2008 the September Sessions were held in Ireland at Brandon Bay. Sponsored by Fat Face and Starboard the weekend was a very chilled out affair with a mixture of competitive riding and just having fun being on offer to the paddlers.
