The challenge of mastering downwind paddling is endless. I know there can be confusing messages around it. In this blog I’ve tried to add some clarity based on my own experience. Let me know what you think. #downwind #ContextIsEverything #AlwaysLearning #SlowDown #ExpirementOften

First time out on my road bike this year. Hard to get any better than fresh swept Leelanau county roads on a warm and windless spring evening. Hard to believe M22 Challenge is just over six weeks away. #LeelanauRoadbiking #SuttonsBayBikes #M22ChallengeTraining

Surfski paddling requires good core strength. This is a good thing, but does mean that beginners can struggle to get comfortable in their boats. The Epic Back Pad is a great way to add additional support and improve your posture, which will ultimately lead to more enjoyable paddling! Available on-line now at TC SURFSKI. #CoreStrength #EpicBackPad #BetterPosture #BetterComfort

I finally published a blog post I've been thinking about for several years. I've shared some insights and transparency around what it's like to run a small surfski business. I hope that it articulates why we all so greatly appreciate those customers who support our businesses and make them viable. If you agree, please share. #ShopLocal #TheLongGame #RelationshipsMatter #ValueIsMoreThanPrice

No matter how grey the day, everything changes the minute you point the nose downwind!

Great Saturday morning getting a new Surfski paddler and triathlete up and running in an Epic v8 and a long time customer upgraded to a v8 Pro. The gale winds and 7 foot waves just outside the harbor were way too much for beginners so we kept it safe on the river. #kayaktriathlon #gettingstartedright #Leland #CarpRiver #epicv8 #epicv8pro

60 degrees, sunshine, and calm water inspired me to try out the new Mocke Equinox 2mm Paddling Top. I used an XL and it fit like a glove. Great length through the torso and arms and excellent articulation in the arms and shoulder.s This top has been designed from the ground up with the performance paddler in mind. This top will be perfect for the 50 degree water/air range. A perfect piece to add to your spring kit. We have all sizes in stock, but limited quantities. #PerformanceInspired #MockeTough #Equinox #FreeShipping #TCSURFSKI

I just released a fun and insightful podcast with the incredibly talented Jasper Mocke. Jasper shares his background, experiences, and tips for everything from race navigation tactics, finding your flow in downwind racing, and the future of matching both boats and paddles to race day conditions #JasperMocke #EpicKayaks #MockeGear #Downwind #K2Marathon #FindYourFlow #CalmIntense

As part of our website redesign we've created a new page dedicated to Kayak Triathlons in Michigan. We've identified 12 in Northern Michigan between June 8th and Sept 15th. So awesome to see these races taking off and providing an alternative option to swimming. Check it out and let us know if we missed any. #KayakTriathlon #NorthernMichigan #M22Challenge #RaceTC #R3EastJordan #IndianRiver #LudingtonLighthouse #RockportRugged #MishExperience #TriUpNorth #CadillacAdventureTri #SunriseSide #GrandAdventureRace

loved the Erg episode Nick....and I joined the yahoo group. Looking forward to gleaning some info/tips on the erg training further.
For anyone on the search for a Mocke PFD, we just restocked with all sizes. We've also now have the Hydration Bladder back in stock and more Mocke gear on the way from SA. We shipped an order to New Caledonia yesterday, proving we can reach anywhere in the world :-) #MockePFD #Hydration #ShippingAllOverTheWorld

I guess it is time to hang up the paddling gear for a while and switch over to cross country skiing. It is starting to get a bit icy and dicey. 😀

The first podcast of 2019 is now up. A great discussion with Oscar Chalupsky discussing surfski racing in the early 80s before the days of single foot wells, adjustable leg length, self bailers, GPS, HR monitors, Go Pros and all the other creature comforts we have today. Always an educational and entertaining discussion with Oscar #PeakPaddlePerformance #PE2LE #SurfskiRacingEarlyDays #OceanCowboys

Happy New Year from a snowy and cold Leland Michigan. Winter has officially arrived. Cold but beautiful out on the water today as the wind settled and the storm swell gently rolled in. #HappyNewYear

I recently had the pleasure of recording a great podcast all about ERG training with the legendary Erik Borgnes. There are few with more hours logged and thought put into optimizing the ERG training experience. A must listen if you currently train on an ERG or are considering it. Enjoy! #SummerRacesAreWonInWinter #TrainSmart #KayakPro

In the spirit of Less is More, I just posted a blog of a simple time trial including the Epic V5 Roto, V8 Ultra, and V10 GT. It provides great directional guidance for anyone trying to understand the speed differences across the range of surfski options. #KeepItSimple #StabilityBeforeAbility #EpicV5Roto #EpicV8Ultra #EpicV10GT

As we head into the cold and dark season for much of North America, I know many of you are dusting off the Kayak ERG. I plan to record a podcast on ERG training with Erik Borgnes in the next week or two. Let me know if you have any specific questions or topic areas you'd like to have covered #ERGTrainingForSurfski #WhenRacesAreWon
