Just Add Water

According to the www.supsports.com website, anywhere there is H20 you can stand up paddle board.  Wonder if that would work at W Kerr Scott Lake or on the Yadkin River?  Anyway, it worked this past weekend at the North Carolina Coast.  Stand Up Paddleboard competitors from three nations, ten states and the District of Columbia, enjoyed sunny skies and temperatures in the 60's for the inaugural NC Surf to Sound Challenge.  Shawn Spencer, Race Chairman, said:  "Over 107 racers joined us in this benefit FOR Masonboro Island."  William Pope, Director for the World Paddle Association said: "It has been amazing to watch how quickly the stand up paddleboard (SUP) sport has grown throughout the country, especially in the Wrightsville Beach area. "  The Surf to Sound Challenge was sanctioned by the WPA (World Paddle Association).
