NZSUP Nationals

The 2025 NZSUP Race Championships will see competitors from all over New Zealand converge on Takapuna in Auckland for three fabulous days of racing.

The programme will feature:
– Sprint racing on Friday 28 March 2025
– Technical course racing on Saturday 29 March
– Long distance racing on Sunday 30 March

The very successful two-fleet format pioneered at the 2023 championships will be continued for 2025:

The Championship fleet for the very top racers from NZ and the south Pacific – tougher courses and longer distances to push our very best paddlers to their limits.

The Challenger fleet for everyone else, with classes for each age group, and racing guaranteed to take place in user-friendly conditions that any reasonably competent paddler will be able to cope with. This fleet will also include a ‘cruiser class’ for non race boards, so it really is open to everyone.
