suncare-station-battle-of-paddle-2010

Major doings at the recent 2010 Rainbow Sandals Battle of the Paddle- what is best described as the “World Series of Paddle Racing”- with some of Earth’s best duking it out in a 2 day sched of various distance events. Mr. Sunshine and a cast of Planet Sun Heroes were deep in the middle of the event, offering suncare to the masses, as well as relief and safe sun education for half-naked tourists unaware and exposed to extreme UV Index levels of Hawaiian summer. Duane DeSoto and the tireless volunteers of Na Kama Kai were also a major part of the event conducting Ocean clinics and races for our Keike. A beautiful thing. The kids from www.standuppaddlesurf.net came by our Planer Sun Care Station and filmed a technicolor video of all the action- should hit their site soon

Shonny Vanlandingham DOES IT AGAIN at XTERRA Southeast Championships. PlanetSunProtectedTriathleteWonderGoddess Shonny V won the XTERRA Southeast US championships finishing an astounding 4 minutes ahead of 3 time World Champ, Melanie McQuaid- and, an unprecedented 6th overall amongst the men. WOW. The venue staged in Pelham Alabama, was said to be the toughest of the year – aside from a 80+ degree water swim, the course tortured with a 20-mile single loop mountain bike course of mostly BIG rocks and a punishing six-mile up-and-down forest run. Shonny still atop the XTERRA U.S. Series with 2 wins and a second place thus far. Shonny’s next stop is the XTERRA East Championship in Richmond, VA. A picture of Shonny here with the GOOD STUFF.
