WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT...

The Mountain Equiqment Co-op Big Chop Summer Paddle Series is a 10 race series happening on Thursday evenings in Vancouver, BC, Canada. The race is open to OC 1 & 2, Kayaks, Paddleboards, and Canoes. The 2010 series starts on Thursday, April 29th, at 7pm.

Imagine. It’s a Thursday evening and you just got off work. It was a stressful day and you need a release. You head to the beach as the sun is setting. 100 boats are lined up off of the shore of Vanier Park. Kayakers vs canoers vs outriggers are all set to battle the 7-10km course. Think Cannonball Run on water. The gun goes off, the race starts, the paddles churn the water, and the bow of the boats stir up the wake. Sweating, heart beating, adrenaline flowing. You finish. You smile. New friends, cold drinks, and tasty food awaits you. What a night. The long workday is now the last thing on your mind. That’s what the Big Chop Summer Paddle Series is all about..
