Women On Waves: W.O.W.!!!

Being a female surf ski racer can, at times, be lonely. Surf Ski racing is a male dominated sport. So, two accomplished female racers from Seattle; Traci Cole and Tracy Landboe, came up with the idea for W.O.W. I happily jumped on board, as did Laura Jackson, a racer from Seattle.

Women On Waves was created to give women the opportunity to learn more about the sport of surf ski racing in a fun, noncompetitive environment. Our inaugural event will be a demo day with clinics and a group paddle here in Bellingham, WA. There will be surf skis and kayaks to demo; clinics on the forward stroke, nutrition and safety; a raffle with cool race schwag; a group paddle and lots of cool women to hang out with!

Time: Noon-4pm Location: Bloedel Donovan Park, Bellingham WA
Dinner: Dinner to follow at Boundary Bay in Bellingham
