Athletically, this Sunday was the day of big decisions. In the sprint final of the amateurs over 2.000 meters, Marina Wagner from Hamburg and Daniel Weiß from Rostock were able to paddle at the head and left their competitors without any chances behind. Marina Wagner knows exactly what she wants to do with her price money (750, – Euro). “I always wanted to go to Hawaii, to have a look at the roots of SUP. This is where I will invest my money to.” In the energy – sapping final of the professional race over ten kilometers, the Hawaiian Ekolu Kalama (54:51 minutes) and the German Sonni Hönscheid (63:04 minutes) took front rank again. The triumph in the long-distance was their second success at the JEVER SUP World Cup Hamburg already. The day before, both of them won the first place in the sprint distance (2.000 meter). Their names should better be remembered in the future of SUP.
