Free to anyone that has purchased a board at Downunder, is in the SUP Spring Training Series, or a team rider... otherwise it's $50
Kim will go over your skills on land and on water, take video of you paddling, and go over with you to determine areas for improvement. Private sessions with Kim are $100 and can be scheduled directly with her at (203) 247-4579 kimb@downunderct.com.
- Are you able to paddle straight?
- Turn 360 with just two strokes?
- How's your form - does it feel efficient?
- Any stress on your shoulders, elbow or back? Fatigue?
- How fast are you going?
- What's your paddle* like? Could it be impacting your performance? Most paddles are sized too long - we can potentially shorten it for you.
*Try some of the newest paddle designs including the Quickblade V-Drive and Trifecta, Werner Bent Shaft, Sawyer wood adjustable.

Paddle Weight For Hire
Maria Amendolia, a dear friend and paddler, had a concussion recently which has impacted her ability to do the things she loves - including paddle boarding. Last weekend she visited us at Downunder, and Karen/Steve propped her up on a paddle board, and paddled her around. Maria is a massage therapist and fitness consultant, and now - paddleboard weight for hire! Get a unique workout paddling Maria around. Something sweet she had to say about her experience.

WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO
|
Downunder was a sponsor of the Westport Electric Car Club Rally this month - what a hoot! We crammed three of us into a Smart Car and hooned around Westport for 1.5 hours - with a surfboard in the back!
Alli, Steve & Mike represented Downunder at the Womens Expo in Stamford, and even managed to get guests to dress up, AND paddle board!
AND IN TWO WEEKS ...
Soundsurfer Watermans Challenge in two weeks
You don't have to be a super experienced paddler to participate in this event - it's a fundraiser, we just want to get you on the water to have some fun. That said - there is prize money for those that win the 7 or 3 mile races. There's also a 3 mile recreational paddle and a 1 mile kids race.
New Website & Online Booking System in two weeks!
