Yes, I know we're on a midseason break, but we couldn't lose this opportunity to pay this tribute to the nicest man in SUP, Casper Steinfath.
The 2024 ISA World championships in Copenhagen features a stellar cast of elite athletes assembled to compete in a country which has done so much to contribute to the sport over the years.
It's also the last racing appearance of the Viking, Casper Steinfath and in this extended episode, recorded in 2022 Simon talks to him about his long race career and achievements and his equally incredible adventures on SUP and foil.
We talk about how how he has extended his ability to 'thrive in chaos' by completing expeditions and the challenges that have proved less than straightforward.
He shares what he has learned by failing and how this has made such a difference to the way he confronts any challenge.

In this episode we discuss an innovative new direction for race events ahead of the first ever English Riviera Championships (SUPER Champs) in Torbay, UK, kicking off September 27th, 28th and 29th.
You can watch this episode on YouTube HERE
Building on the huge recreational growth of the sport, this event is designed as an opportunity to introduce first time and new paddlers to racing while also showcasing the top level distance and technical events and athletes.
The event reintroduces the much loved (and missed) one design racing, features SUP sprints in the stunning and sheltered harbour, as well as a platform for the exciting and entertaining SUP Polo.
The SUPER Championships also serve as a 'SUP Expo' with all leading SUP and accessory brands present, with experts and advice on hand whatever your level or need.
**And if you're coming from Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can enter for free**
With Brendon Prince and Sarah Thornely, we discuss this exciting opportunity for converting leisure paddlers towards different flavours of the sport, with the intention to build their current casual pastime into a lifelong commitment rather than a just post-covid fashion.

In this episode of the SUPfm podcast, we dive deep into the Amazon SUP Challenge—a gruelling 330km endurance paddle race through the heart of the Peruvian jungle.
This journey is not just a test of physical strength and mental resilience but also a cultural immersion that brings paddlers close to the vibrant and resilient communities along the Amazon River.
Simon chats with Caz Dawson (SUP Lass) and reflects on the immersive audio diary that Caz, Jonathan Gill, and Matthew Phillips put together as they braved the hot, humid, and treacherous conditions to become the first team to complete this year's Amazon Challenge.
They share their awe-inspiring experiences, from wildlife encounters to navigating rapid waters.
Beyond the race, the episode explores the meaningful engagement with local river communities. Alongside the personal achievement, the team also paddled to raise funds and awareness for these communities, with over 80% of their support crew comprising local members.
SUP Lass (Caz) became the first female to paddle this route on a stand-up paddleboard, and their efforts culminated in raising the highest amount for local causes in this year's fundraiser.
And if you're inspired, consider supporting their ongoing fundraising efforts to create a positive impact through adventure. Visit SUP Lass or their JustGiving Page for more details.

This episode (recorded in 2021) is another chance to hear our comprehensive discussion with Professor Mike Tipton, a renowned expert in human and applied physiology at the Extreme Environments Laboratory at the University of Portsmouth.
This episode aims to raise awareness of cold water as a significant but often overlooked risk, offering valuable information on how to minimize dangers and enjoy water sports safely, particularly over the first early months of the peak paddle season.
Known for his extensive research on cold water effects on the human body, Professor Tipton's work informs survival and rescue training for first responders and safety campaigns worldwide.
The conversation delves into the dangers of cold water shock, the physiological responses to cold water immersion, strategies for acclimatization, and practical safety advice for stand-up paddleboarders and other water sports enthusiasts.
Additionally, Tipton shares insights into his collaborations with life-saving organizations, the importance of cold water safety education, and his role in founding the International Drowning Researchers Alliance.

This week we spend time with Craig Sawyer, SUP coach and competitor in this year's race, as one part of Team Shac, alongside Scott 'Skip' Innes
Craig's also shooting a documentary about the race and its history, and he talks about this, and his personal history of preparing for, but not quite starting the race, in the years since his first 2019 entry.
This season we're delving into the immersive experience of racing through the untouched beauty of the Yukon wilderness.
This is the second of our 'deep dive' episodes looking at the Yukon 1000 race and following the experiences of the organisers and participants of the 2023 event.
