The Surfrider Sprints promises to be the most challenging, competitive and fun addition to 2025 northeast SUP race events.
Test your technical skills all summer long with these out-and-back, head-to-head races are an overlay to existing paddle events around Connecticut and nearby areas. All SUP paddlers are welcomed, new and experienced alike - let's see what you've got!

Strengthening our common bonds through activities and building a community of environmental activists is what the Sprints are all about.
You Came, You Paddled, You Conquered
Because of your support for our efforts, last year the Connecticut Chapter was awarded Surfrider's Coastal Champion Award which is given to chapters and clubs across the country who are doing extraordinary work to protect our ocean, waves and beaches.
Many thanks to Athletic Brewing, a CT-based nonalcoholic beer company, for being our title sponsor for last year's Sprints Series! This sponsorship provided critical funds to help amplify our work and connect with the communities that we serve.
