Prosport Sunscreen

On Friday 25 June Simon Bassett owner of 2XS / X-train and BSUPA head coach, Matt Argyle BSUPA Ranked 2nd overall 2009 and Jock Patterson, BSUPA champ 2009 set a new record for paddle surfing across The English Channel. The relay from Dover to Calais took just over 5 hours 38 minutes.

The record which is currently being ratified should stand as a new relay Guinness World Record, which will be confirmed in the next few weeks.

Fortunately the guys had great weather and sun for the crossing but it wasn't without it's dramas including fog banks shrouding super tankers. Not necessarily the kind of things you want to run in to.

But what an achiement. All in all the guys raised nearly £8000 for Surfer's Against Sewage and had an experience of a lifetime in with the deal. You can read more about the trip here: http://blog.2xs.co.uk/

Any other charity missions anyone?
