Races Around Western Australia
We want to get you out of Perth and experiencing the different locations, skates and coastline.
The Wreck Run
The race begins in the Moore River in front of the Guilderton foreshore. After a quick dash in the river, you'll run over the sandbar and ocean race beautiful runs ~11kms north to Seabird.
We want to make racing fun, easy and safe. Option to include a seat on the bus and a burger when you register. Prizes for the pirate category (dressing up as a pirate) and majority of prize money assigned to the junior paddlers. We've got all the ingredients for a ripper afternoon in the great outdoors for racers and spectators. We'll have all the safety and support in place so all skill levels are welcome.

Regional Race Series....
Plans are well underway for a series of three regional races outside of Perth. We'll let you'll know when we have firmed things up.
North Cott Skins
Racing stripped right back. Are you the fastest 1000 m paddler downwind? Line up at the buoy 400 m off the beach, race 1 km downwind to the finish on the sand, and a chunk of the field is out. Whoever's left turns around and does it again.
Up to five rounds, last craft standing wins.
Two disciplines back to back. Prone boards away at 4:30pm, skis at 5:00pm. Race one or race both. Done by about 6:30pm.
The whole course stays inside 400 m of shore and finishes on the sand in front of the club, so anyone who comes down to watch sees the actual racing instead of two dots on the horizon.
Entries are open on Webscorer: webscorer.com/register?raceid=448405
$55 until Sunday 8 November, $65 from Monday 9 November. Entries close Tuesday 24 November at 6pm, capped at 150. Junior is under 20. Every entry gets a race hat and goes in the draw for a new ChalupSki ski. Questions? Call Reece on 0438 950 866.
What a day crew!! Thanks Reece and Fi, congrats on putting together such an awesome first race. Exploring and paddling new water and getting out of Perth is exciting stuff.

Awesome day out and thanks to Paddle Collective for putting it on. One very jealous onlooker today (and one very happy competitor) who both can't wait to wet a blade up there again soon.
