The winter paddle season is upon us and with it brings some of the best paddle weather. YOLO Board and Stand Up Fitness are excited to announce the first YOLO Winter Race Series. Kicking off with the 2nd Annual Pilgrim Paddle on Spa Beach in downtown St. Pete, we will hit four of the amazing waterways throughout the Tampa Bay area November - March. The series will consist of four races (Bay, Gulf, Intra-coastal and River). P...articipants can race in just one, or all four. Points will be given out at each race for paddlers finishing first through sixth place, and trophies and prizes will be awarded at the end of the series to those racers with the most points.
There will be three divisions for each race:
14ft Race Boards 12'6" Race Boards 12'6" and Under Stock Class (no race boards allowed in this division)
Register online at https://www.active.com/event_detail.cfm?event_id=1914723 where you'll be able to register for all four at a discounted rate, or individually if you can only participate in one or two races. Please register as soon as possible to ensure you receive a race t-shirt.
