A few days ago we learnt the Pacific Paddle Games was canceled. The official word is “postponed til 2020,” but nothing is confirmed for next year either. I’m guessing it’s gone for good. → READ MORE
End of an era? Pacific Paddle Games cancelled (“postponed”) following sale of SUP the Mag
After weeks of speculation, it’s official: The traditional season-ending showdown, the Pacific Paddle Games, has been cancelled.
The official status is “postponed til 2020,” not cancelled, but it’s definitely not happening this year and the future is fairly uncertain following the sale of event organiser SUP the Mag to a new parent company two months ago.

LINCOLN DEWS WINS THE 2018 PADDLE LEAGUE WORLD TITLE

In brief: Lincoln Dews has claimed The Paddle League World Title after an extraordinary weekend of racing.
Lincoln survived a scare from Brazilian darkhorse Guilherme dos Reis to claim the overall Pacific Paddle Games crown, while the Aussie underdog also benefited from Guilherme and Arthur Arutkin knocking Boothy off the podium.
That combination setup a fairy-tale finish to the season for the DEEP/Quickblade team rider, who now etches his name in the history books as the first ever Paddle League Men’s World Champion.

TITLE FIGHT: “Lincoln vs Boothy” in the battle for The Paddle League World Title @ the PPGs
As if the biggest weekend of the year needed any additional spice, we’ve now got a little extra sizzle courtesy of The Paddle League.
After a season that officially began in Tahiti six months ago to the day, the battle for the inaugural Paddle League Men’s World Title will be decided by two Aussie athletes and one big weekend of racing in Southern California.
The Pacific Paddle Games presented by Salt Life is the setting for the “title fight” between current ratings leader Michael Booth and his compatriot Lincoln Dews (ranked #2 in the world). And the equation is fairly simple: If Lincoln wins the PPGs and Boothy misses the podium, David will snatch the crown from Goliath at the final race of the season. → READ MORE
