Elite paddler and one of Europe’s fastest men, Gaetan Sene, has signed up with Team Starboard.

The Frenchman was probably the only paddler in Europe to beat Eric Terrien during the 2011 race season and had some impressive results overseas as well, including 1st place in the 12’6″ Long Distance race at the Battle of the Paddle California.

Gaetan joins an all-star lineup riding for Starboard, including Connor Baxter, Zane Schweitzer, Annabel Anderson, Bart de Zwart and a bunch of the world’s other top stand up paddlers.

We’ll be able to see how Gaetan performs on his new boards in a few weeks, when he heads to Peru for the ISA SUP World Championship.
