Hands Down this is definitely the most popular SV Social since it's inception way back in 2010. [As captured in the photo] Our last one was in 2024 and people who came along are still raving about it. "What is it?" Quite simply, it's an opportunity to pack the car, camping gear and Sup quiver, hit the road for a couple of days and bag as many waves as possible [without dropping in]. Sound good?? Then don't deliberate, go ahead and book your event ticket and campsite.  Ingenia Holidays Inverloch Foreshore | Caravan Park Inverloch | Ingenia Holiday Parks After a good Saturday saltwater fix, we'll head to the Espy Pub for dinner and get together.  Bookings are essential, so the sooner you commit, the less chance you have of missing out. A group booking will be made 10 days prior, first in, best dressed. We can't guarantee a seat for any late-comers. Esplanade Hotel Inverloch What to pack?? Inverloch provides excellent paddling opportunities for flatwater cruising, Bop and full tilt waveriding. You choose!  Pack as many boards as you have to cover all bases. Pack your full rubber wardrobe, [nobody enjoys jumping back into a soggy, cold wettie] Pack the camping quiver for one or two nights.

Paddle. Plan. Party. Repeat. Join us for an afternoon that ticks all the boxes: (and lets hope the weather is like we had in the paddle AGM photo above)   2pm – Paddle - Keast Park, Seaford Stretch the arms, find your balance, and pretend it’s “just a social” (we all know someone will turn it into a race 😏).   4pm – AGM + Drinks at Riviera Hotel, Seaford Important club stuff… made significantly better with drinks on the SUP VIC bar tab 🍻   Dinner to follow Because nothing says “productive meeting” like rewarding ourselves immediately after.   Come for the paddle, stay for the laughs, and leave wondering how the AGM went so quickly…   See you there!   Paddle location  https://maps.app.goo.gl/w9z5mYoFyn4xECJe7   AGM - Riviera Hotel https://maps.app.goo.gl/ShuKk57cALPZmCeNA       Social paddles included in SUPVIC financial membership https://supvic.tidyhq.com  Leg Rope essential.

Our wonderful club has been incredibly fortunate over the years to have had dedicated individuals who have represented, nurtured, and led from the front. One of those remarkable volunteers—like everyone in our club, giving their time purely out of commitment—was the long standing past president, George “GT” Thomas. GT passed away suddenly three years ago, leaving our Sup Vic community shocked and deeply saddened. The club was a huge part of his life, and now, each year we come together for a memorial paddle to honour and celebrate his contribution and legacy. This annual memorial paddle will be held at one of GT’s favourite spots—his beloved “God’s Country.” Join us to remember GT, share stories, catch some waves, and paddle together in his spirit. The event fee includes a post-paddle gourmet BBQ and a donation to the “Heart Matters” charity. And as GT said don’t forget to bring 5 friends along! This paddle is open to current and past members, good friends and everyone inbetween. GT would want you there - book your ticket NOW!   #take3forthesea   Social paddles included in SUPVIC financial membership https://supvic.tidyhq.com  Leg Rope essential.

Okay, who's been watching the WSL Bells Beach event?   If you have (like me) then it gets your juices flowing to go and ride a wave. Surfing your Sup is still widely regarded as the pinnacle of our sport.  This "Social" could be either the Sat 18th or Sun 19th, wholly dependent upon the swell/wind forecast.    The event will be called on the Wednesday prior.   As a surfer, you have to be patient & flexible in order to hunt out the best conditions.   As usual, it's a case of "Any board works"  If it's "On" then naturally a surf sup is preferable. If it's a small swell with little peelers, then a Bop Style approach is the go!     Social paddles included in SUPVIC financial membership https://supvic.tidyhq.com  Leg Rope essential.
