Race 6: The 2K Sprint. This distance is rarely called a sprint, yet in the Goat Boater SUP CUP series it is! Test your technical skills going through this big 'V' and smaller 'W' course, 2K total. Not only does your sprinting ability play a significant role in your overall time, but so does your buoy turn skills. 5 fast turns vs 5 slower turns could make all the difference in 1st or 2nd place along with your strategy through the course. So make sure to practice your buoy turns ahead of time. You will start with a sitting water start and head down 500M for a right hand shoulder turn (Clock-Wise) around the white marker buoy. Head back to the other side of the cove to complete the first 'V' of the course. Make a right hand shoulder turn around the big red monster buoy to start the 'W' of the course. You will make a left hand turn around the first point of the W, right hand turn of the middle, left hand turn at the second point of the W and finish where you started with a water finish line. This is a water line start and photo finish and offers great views for spectators at The Tega Cay Beach Club. For those still breathing, we will do a 1-2 mile social paddle after for all interested.
