Tuesday, 20 November 2007 06:57 |

Hard to believe but the Labor Day weekend is already upon us and, despite the calendar listing 9/23 as the start of Autumn, it signals the end of summer.

Don't despair, however, as some great paddling is left whether just out & about or looking for that last race or two. Then comes surf season!

The big news is the Chicago Shoreline Marathon coming up next weekend on 9/8. Please check the events page here or go directly to http://www.chicagoshorelinemarathon.com/ for furter info.

This should be a great event offerig fun, comradeship & challenge for all. A number of paddlers will be traveling to the event so check in should you be looking to car pool.

We will be at the event with boats and other paddling equipment to demo so please stop by our booth at Leone beach, where the race culminates, and check us out.

Then, if you still have more go, don't forget the US Surfski Champs in San Fran at the end of September.

Presently overstocked on kid's equipment, so if you're looking for a great deal on a kid's boat, paddle etc. please check in with us and we can make your young paddlers Autumn, Christmas, Hanukkah, Qwanza, birthday...a great one.

Hope to see you in Chicago!

The rivers are running, the whitewater guys are creeking, Lake Superior is open for fun. Not long ago we had one of the smoothest sheets of uniform ice on this end of the Big Lake that anyone had ever seen. The ice fisherman took the initiative, and soon afterwards there were skate skiers, ice skaters, kite skiers, ice boaters and hockey games off shore, everyone revelling in miles of perfectly transparent Lake ice.

A father & daughter discovered an unchartered wreck off Park Point due to the window like circumstances. The sonic booms and cracks of thousands of tons of shifting ice kept all of us attentive and just a little creeped out. Superior in all its forms and moods is nothing short of magnificent.

This water sport season is upon us and Superior Surf Systems has some exciting news. Land was purchsed last summer at the base of Stoney Point, the premiere surfing spot on the Great lakes, where the eventual shop will be built. In the mean time, a temporary shop has been built, which you can find a map to by going to 'contact us' and clicking on 'map'. Please call ahead to make sure we're here. A couple new product lines have been added, namely MEGA surf kayaks and THINK surf skis and fitness kayaks.

This year we'll be moving into the kite surfing arena and offering equipment and demos. If all goes well we will be stocking surf boards by this fall when the Great Lakes start to get a little cranky.

Stay tuned...there is more to come. Get out & get wet!

I have always been drawn to water. It is why I live near Lake Superior, the mother lode of all bodies of fresh water. But its not only Superior, its all the lakes, rivers, creeks and flowages we have here in the upper midwest, specifically Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. The Natives, the Voyageurs and perhaps even the Vikings plied these waterways, and when I am paddling here, I feel them.
