SUP World Championships Lima Peru / Swiss Team Update‏

A big thanks for all the support and encouraging messages we've received over the last days.

Tough start for the Swiss team in the SUP Surfing contest but both Steeve Fleury and Christophe Querry battled hard in the qualifying rounds of the World Championships.

Even if they missed the qualification, they're both are happy to have been able to represent our "Heimat" wonderful Switzerland, a country with no coastline at this historical SUP Surf event.

Here's a quick image resume of what's happening here:
