It has been another crazy busy week-end of SUP events with some terrific SUP results. The Euro Tour had a double event with two new editions of the Deep Sup Race in Noja, Spain and the Adriatic Crown in Marotta, Italy. The Payette River Games were full-on in Cascade, Idaho and the French SUP event Trans'Lac SUP near Bordeaux saw the french BIC team in great shape.
2015 Adriatic Crown results, Marotta, Italy
What to remember:
> Paolo Marconi and Angela Jackson win the Adriatic Crown in Marotta, Italy.
> 1st Euro Tour win for both of them
> 1st time Paolo Marconi beats Leonard Nika in many years
> 1st time Leonard Nika doesn't finish 1st “at home” in Italy in 3 years
> 1st Euro Tour race win for Jake Jensen – he wins the beach race on Day 2
> The Teulade Brothers (Jérémy and Ludovic) are climbing up the ladder (4th and 9th)
> Leonard Nika has a younger brother who can race too – Claudio Nika is 4th (equal with Jérémy) just behind Leonard, 3rd.
> Super rough conditions on Day 2 – choppy, 70 cm waves etc…
Overall Top Results

> The overall results is the sum of three events: the long distance, the beach race and the sprints
> Roman Frejo wins the V Deep Sup Race despite a disqualification in one of the 3 races due to a missed buoy turn
> First international event victory for Ane Zulaika. You can now count with the spanish rider from San Sebastian on the international scene. Ane Zulaika has been waiting for her time to come since the start of the Euro Tour. Also worth noting that this is her first win over Laura Quetglas.
> Great results for the Brits: Marie Buchanan (10th at the ISA world championship, Mexico) gets 2nd place, Paul Simmons gets a 2nd overall position too, Aaron Rowe (5th overall) finishes 2nd of the Long Distance > Surprising 3rd place for Laura Quetglas, who has been dominating Spanish SUP racing for 3 years. It is fair to say that she hasn't been able to train recently since the ISA world championships. > Pepe Oltra Sans, the international racer from Barcelona makes the same mistake as Roman at one of the buoys and finishes 6th overall.
> Brannislav Sramek wins the beach race
