The 2024 NZSUP Race Championships saw nearly 80 competitors from all over New Zealand converge on Marsden Point in Northland, a new venue for the event, for three fabulous days of racing.
The programme featured:
- Sprint racing on Friday 12 April
- Technical course racing on Saturday 13 April
- Long distance racing on Sunday 14 April
The very successful two-fleet format pioneered at the 2023 championships continued for 2024:
- The Elite fleet for the very top racers from NZ and the south Pacific – tougher courses and longer distances to push our very best paddlers to their limits.
- The Challenger fleet for everyone else, with classes for each age group, and racing guaranteed to take place in user-friendly conditions that any reasonably competent paddler will be able to cope with.
Challenger Fleet Results
