The fourth day of the 2024 ICF SUP Worlds saw the Tech Finals take place in Sarasota, with Verity Thomas achieving a top five finish in USA
Words: Anna Little
Paddling from a seated start, zig zagging around a 750m course, the set up tested the paddlers agility and power on a board.
Verity Thomas was the stand out performance for Great Britain, coming 5th in the woman’s over 40 technical finals. An outstanding performance. 5th in the world.
Blue Ewer came 2nd in the mens open final B, making him top 10 in the world.
Paul Drake came 8th in the over 50’s mens quarter finals and sadly missed out on the latter stages of racing.
Tomorrow is the last day of racing. The Long distance race with nearly all GB athletes lining up for this one.
There are live results which can be followed here, whilst YouTube members can watch the action unfold live.
