Jokes aside, the word is Connor actually got clipped by one of the windsurfers and thrown off his board. Waiting to hear the full story on that one…
Connor Baxter wasn’t the only SUP racer dodging the windsurfer/kitesurfer crowd – check out these shots of Kai Lenny and Dave Kalama below. Oh and there was a massive log ship passing by at one point as well, just for good measure…
Seems there was plenty of obstacles for the paddlers to deal with at the Gorge Paddle Challenge Downwinder!

A few obstacles certainly makes for a more interesting race! // pic © Ben Jones
