SUP in the Olympics?
Apologies if this has been raised before.....but I'm curious to know if there is any movement to have SUP'ing included as an Olympic discipline? I'm guessing a straight out drag race a la kayaking would be the go as that way there wouldn't be any drafting involved, there would be lanes and 1 person to a lane. In saying that though there could be an open water event held with the yacht regatta. Seems like a pretty seamless integration to me and an opportunity to highlight and showcase the fastest growing watersport in the world. It is certainly a sport with a participation factor numbering no doubt in the many hundreds of thousands around the world so it seems to meet all the criteria for inclusion.....
