This week we sat down with Ben Friberg to discuss endurance paddling, Chattajack 31, and the future of SUP in Chattanooga, TN.
Ben is an endurance athlete who, in 2012, set the Guiness World Record for the longest distance travelled on a SUP in 24 hours at 238 miles! He then went on to be the first person to paddle from Cuba to the US on a SUP in 2013.
Ben and his wife, Kimberley, have long given back to the community through hosting their weekly local race series and putting on Chattajack, the massive paddle board race through the TN River gorge.

Purchasing a stand up paddle board can be a big decision.
Before you drop the cash on a new SUP board come on out to demo day and take each model for a spin. This is a great opportunity to test each board to discover the one that works best for you and your unique riding style, body type, and personal needs.

What to Expect
Demo Day is an open and free event for anyone that is interested in paddle boarding. It doesn't matter if you already own a board or you're new to the sport you are welcome to come try out the BOTE demo fleet. We typically have all BOTE models on the water - ready to test drive. The event is relaxed and laid back. Most days we have a KULA of beer and sometimes snacks. This is the perfect way to unwind after a busy week and get outside.
We recommend bringing flip flops, chaco, or booties for boarding. You may get wet so dress accordingly and bring a towel. All ages and skill levels welcome. Demo day is kid and pet friendly.
