Loco SUP gets sectioned in Peru or ISA SUP and Paddleboard Champs 2013

Loco SUP dream team rider and Jersey slayer Andre Le Geyt recently put on a fine display of SUP surfing against some seriously hot international competition.

With Peru serving up some testing conditions, Le Geyt managed to make it through to the repercharge rounds and at times displayed the kind of power, style and skill that could give any of the world’s elite a run for their money

After bowing out of the comp it was clear Andre felt he could have done better but nothing should be taken away from the fact that Jersey’s number one Loco SUP charger did himself and Team GB proud. Unfortunately luck this time wasn’t on his side but positive vibes should be felt throughout the UK SUP community as Team GB and Le Geyt more than held their own when it mattered.

Currently somewhere in deepest darkest South America, Andre Le Geyt will return with his Loco paddle board. 

We would like to congratulate him for his efforts during the ISA event and look forward to hearing his Peruvian wave tales when he gets home to debrief with the Loco SUP team.

Incredible for the Loco SUP brand when you think about it, from brand inception to National Champion to Team GB representation in less than 18 months. It's no wonder that larger brands have had no choice but to give Loco their well-deserved props. We look forward to seeing how they react to Loco establishing new standards in shorter SUP design which will no doubt be emmulated by Starboard et al.
