Robby Naish SUPing in Surfdock

We had an absolutely great day in Surfdock today, when the biggest name in Windsurfing, Kiting and SUPaddleboarding dropped in to say hello!

Robby Naish is an absolute legend, he is without doubt the most respected, liked and famous waterman there is in any watersport.

Robby was in town to open the RedBull Illume exhibition in Trinity College http://www.redbullillume.com/home.html , and we were lucky enough to arrange through Oisin and RedBull for Robby to drop by, and use Surfdock for a nice SUP session while being interviewed by RTE.

A few Surfdock friends joined Robby and Aidan (RTE presenter) on the water, and Robby showed us how do do it properly!
We would love him to work full time teaching our Stand Up Paddleboarding classes, but unfortunately that will probably not happen!

Here are a few shots of our day... hope you enjoy them !
