Surfski Spring Camp 2011

Last weekend the Surfski Spring Camp 2011 was held at Barnens Ö north of Stockholm. The organizer of the camp was Peter Ekström from Global Surfski.

The camp was really good. There was a mix of lectures, courses and kayaking for all paddlers regardless of level. As a complete beginner I had two missions. First was to get enough instructions to handle and understand the basics of a surfski. The second part was to test different models of surfskis.

There were a lot of different brands of surfskis. Many were new to me. One of the were Fusion. A cool design and cool guys! Martin from Multisportbloggen

As a beginner, I was very well looked after. There was always someone more experienced paddler  near who could give instructions.

    Well, how did your missions end up for you?

    Were you able to handle and understand the basics of a surfski? Did you test different surfskis? If so, do we have a winner?

    Btw, I still haven’t got the ski part of this thingie… Maybe you can shed some light on that by writing something up – in a new post maybe :-)
