F-ONE America Sup rider Rev Thom takes home a 10th place finish in the 31 mile long Chattajack SUP/Kayak Race this past Saturday, October 24, 2015 in Chattanooga TN. Rev was riding the 2016 14′ x 26″ F-One Race Pro Sup.
There were over 300 paddlers on the starting line! This course travels 31 miles downstream through the Tennessee River Gorge ending at Hales Bar Marina on Nickajack Lake. 31 miles takes some serious endurance attracting top paddlers form all over the country. After the race Rev himself gives us the first hand feedback on the 2016 RACE PRO!
Rider: Rev Thom
Board: 2016 Race Pro 12’6″ x 26″Just got done with the 32 mile Chattajack race in Tennessee. Making the top 10 was awesome on the new board even though I was up against all 23 & 24 wide 14′ Sup’s, the 26″ wide board handled the flat water really well. Those stepped rails up front assist so well in tracking. I m able to get 10-15 more strokes per side in the flat conditions. This was a perfect flat water test for the new 2016 Race Pro. We already know it’s amazing performance in the bump and downwind conditions, but for a 26″ wide all-round board she performed really well against some of the best long distance paddlers in the country riding much narrower boards. Looking forward to the 2016 season, excited on the arrival of my 24″ wide 2016 Race Pro!
