Danny Ching has won the 2012 Carolina Cup, taking out the 12.5 mile (20 kms) “Graveyard Course” Elite Race ahead of Florida’s Chase Kosterlitz.

Heather Baus put in a massive performance on the women’s side, beating home both the favourite Candice Appleby (3rd) and the ISA World Champion Brandi Baksic (2nd).

Almost 300 paddlers competed in the three races (Elite/Open/Fun), which probably makes it the biggest stand up paddle race ever held on America’s East Coast. So a big congrats to the organisers as well.

Thanks to Distressed Mullet and Standup Paddle Magazine for the live race updates.

Check out all the results and action shots below, plus check back Monday for a full weekend wrap-up and breakdown of the race by the Mad Scientist Jim Terrell.
