OceanPaddler World Series & Ocean Sports Media production of the 2012 Doctor Ocean Race. Widely considered as a mini Molokai, the race from Rottnest Island to Sorrento mainland is named after the Fremantle Doctor, a wind the blows most afternoons predominantly S-SW at 20kts plus. This year the world best paddlers are battling for not only a win, but Series Points for the OceanPaddler World Series. Clint Robinson is back for for another crack after dominating in 2009, in his way however is defending champ Tim Jacobs and an ocean of elite paddlers all wanting to pull on the white Doctor gown.

The second race of the Pacific Ocean Series was held at the Gold Coast City Marina on the Coomera River today with over 90 paddlers attending cover all categories Kayak, Ocean and Surf Ski, OC and SUP. Paddlers arrived at the venue to an array of event and series sponsors from craft manufactures, coaching services and local businesses.
The paddlers course was three laps of a 4km course. As each paddler came around for their second and third laps they were cheered by 20-30 spectators and our DJ “Kirby” calling out first names for encouragement and letting the spectators know who was who.
Two of our younger paddlers took the lead early and where never troubled out front. Joel (K1) and Michael (Think Uno) took it all the way till the last turn with the K1 turning a little faster and sprinting to the win over the last 200m. These paddlers where followed by another two U/21 paddlers Tim Stenlake and Alex Tibbits with Olympian Daniel Collins (40+) coming in 6th. Adan McKane, Matt O’Garey, Jorden Clark and Damien Catran closing out the top 10
This was the first event ever to put K1 paddlers up against the states best Ocean Ski paddlers and I am happy to say that the Ocean Ski paddlers come out on top with 6 paddlers in the top 10.
A big thank you goes out to the SUP paddlers and OC paddlers that attended the Coomera Cup. The Pacific Ocean Series has been designed to be a Ski, SUP and OC event and it is nice to see these categories supporting the series. The Coomera Cup and the Pacific Ocean Series could not be possible without the help of its sponsors and we would like to thank everyone of them for attending todays event, especially the Gold Coast City Marina.
Next race will be at Byron Bay on the 17th July. We look forward in seeing you all there. Labels: ocean racing, standup, SUP, SURF SKI, video
Inaugural race of the Pacific Downwind Series in NSW put on by a couple of good mates Kevy and Trev featuring OC1, SUP and Ski paddlers battling it out over three races for a free trip to Hawaii from Sponsors GNC Livewell. Kamanu Composites team member Travis Grant flew in from Qld to take on the locals and had some work to do to snatch away the airfare as did first time SUP paddler Dave Kissane having a year off ski to have some fun. Don't miss the near disaster at Barrenjoey Headland as Top Dog and Dingo Deans do their best to smash their OC1's.
"Aussie Aloha" ... that's the best way i can describe The Saltwater Festival.
When Trevor Hendy and his Team invite Ocean Lovers for two days of Paddling, Music, Food, Family and Fun, the likes of Jamie Mitchell, Dean Gardiner, Shannon Eckstein, Ky Hurst, Greg Long, Chris Maynard, Woogie Marsh, Paul Jackson, Allison Fullagar and many others, find the appeal irresistible.
SUP, Ski, Outrigger, Paddleboard, Beach Volleyball, ThunderCats, The Saltwater Festival has it all.
"Chris Maynard" - one of the best Downwind paddles i have ever done ....
Sunshine Coast Paddlers have not had an all craft downwind Ocean race since the Point To Point race in the late '90s. Put together by Kirk Jarrott and Shane Dalziel in just under 4 weeks, it drew paddlers from as far a way as NSW. When the paddling community come together like this it's awesome, what a fun race.
One of the best Ski Races in the World, a Short Course Molokai if you like. Mainland to Rottnest Island across shallow waters powered by The Doctor.

The weather was shit, i got there late, i was supposed to be in Sydney filming the Fenn Cup, but i got some cool footage anyway. Thanks Scotty from Wollongong and Woogie for the additional little SUP session. SUP Expression Session Demo Day from Ocean Sports Media on Vimeo.
I went to the wrong starting location so i missed my Jet Ski video platform to follow the entire race, by the time i got through traffic to the right location the event had already started.... bugger. This clip was shot from the bank of the river near the Noosa Bar and at the finish line.
