The Head of the Dart draws competitors from far and wide to take part in a unique and special race. Here are a few quotes from paddlers who raced in 2013. It sounds like they’ll all be back for more!
“The Head of the Dart can be summed up as a meticulously well organised race that is welcoming and inclusive – great paddling in a beautiful part of the country!”
– Julia Crocker, Bray Lake SUP Club
“One of my first big events but I have to say one of the best . Not only could I test my limits as a racer but It was really good fun as well : such a picturesque paddle in stunning country side . There is a real sense of camaraderie too amongst the competitors, especially once you break off into little race packs . I can’t wait to do it again this year !”
– Chris Kenyon, Central SUP
“An awesome first distance race – beautiful scenery, a great atmosphere in a big SUP field and definitely a considerable personal achievement. Looking forward to upstream this year!”
– Lucy Pearce, SUP North
HOTD 2015 was my very first SUP race. I would like to thank the organisers for a great event. Everyone was cheerfull and quick to help out. I really enjoyed the day but missed the results unfortunately as I had a long drive and very early start on Monday. I will be back next year for another excellent event, Thank you
