Training

We trained for six months prior to the trip, training on average about three times a week in the Hout Bay harbour area, paddling about 15-25km per session. On top of this, we also paddled in other areas around the peninsula to get varied conditions and experience. We also went on a mini-expedition with the whole crew to Hermanus, which involved long day paddles, big-wave training, and basic skills training.

In addition, we are also trained in the gym, on a pre-worked out programme, complimented by a special diet programme, which has been drawn up by a registered dietician.
