California Paddling Events This Spring You Don’t Want to Miss!
Each spring the paddling scene in California seems to take off. There is a convergence of seasons as the SoCal Ocean Racing Series tapers off into the club OC-6 Iron season. There are also always a sprinkling of independent paddling events, i.e. those not part of a broader series, that dot the calendar from March through May. Here’s a rundown of what’s on our radar. There’s a little something for everyone from new paddlers to veterans. Registration for most events can be accomplished via PaddleGuru.
Looking forward to seeing you at an event or two!
