My favorite part of the week...having this guy by my side the whole time, and watching him fall in love with this sport. So much fun watching him have fun learning to ride bumps. There were lots of “Yaaaaaah!”s and “Woohoo!”s coming from that boat. The @gorgepaddlechallenge 2018 was his second race ever on OC1. I think he’s hooked!. (well, at least on downwinding anyway. 😜) Love you babe! Thanks for all you do for me and how hard you work.
GIGANTIC thank you to @aprilzilg for renting her hot pink boat for the weekend! 🙏🏻!💙! @puakeadesigns

People ask me all the time, “What’s your favorite race?” I think I finally have an answer for them. This week in Hood River was flipping fantastic. Downwinding has never typically been “my kind of race,” but I think it’s safe to say I’ve finally learned a thing or two about riding bumps and it’s so much fun! Not to mention the RS rides like a charm. This was only my second year at the @gorgepaddlechallenge but it definitely won’t be my last. I ended up 6th in the double downwind and 2nd in the technical course race. I am not sure what that puts me at overall, but it’s a big improvement on last year and t brings me that much closer to my goals.
The Columbia Gorge is such a beautiful area with so much to do. I highly recommend this race and visiting hood river.
Thank you @paddleleague for the coverage, @georgiasphoto for the best finish line photos, @sicmaui for my gear, @the_good_inside for keeping me healthy, and @vmgblades and @kaenon for all your support as well.

So stoked on yesterday’s 2nd place finish in the technical race here at the @gorgepaddlechallenge. About as staked as a field of female paddlers can get, and it was a close race too! Congrats @shaefoudy champ!, @oliviapiana and also to @fiona_wylde for her overall win!
What an incredible week of FUN, downwinding, racing, and friends here in Hood River.
Thank you to @sicmaui for my RS and all that you guys do! Thank you to @paddleleague and @georgiasphoto for the coverage and the photos!
I will post more photos and more thoughts on the race this week. Now it’s ✈️ time.

Well that was fun! Not the windiest, but certainly windy enough. 💨🌊😁 The @gorgepaddlechallenge double downwind race yesterday was awesome. I came 6th overall, bettering my position from last year by 5 places. Woohoo! I’ve still got a lot of work to do in the bumps, but most importantly, I achieved my main goal which was to have fun. I was genuinely enjoying myself. Smiling and laughing and cheering and waving at the photo boat. Lol. Which is far from my typical race style of head down and grit it out, but downwinding is far from my typical race. My board felt awesome out there! I went with my @sicmaui RS 14x23” (I had been testing the 21” all week but decided I’m not quite ready to go that skinny, yet) and my @vmgblades mako 28. Having a more stable board allowed me to go with my smallest fin for better maneuverability. So that combo was great.
The race is not over yet! Today is the course race and I expect this will be my day! I will of course let you know how it goes. Or you can watch live on the @paddleleague Facebook page. Women’s race is at 2:00PST. But the fun and games starts at 9am with the super groms so tune in all day for some fun course racing in hood river, OR! Oh, and I am still running the @sicmaui Instagram stories all day today as well. So stay tuned! And thanks for all your support! 🙏🏻😘✌🏻💙🤙🏻🏄‍♀️
