Elite Solo Surfskis are the marquee event and paddlers will be required to wear an issued jersey from KIRA to easily identify the field.

Each craft category will have a separate start. Slower crafts, female and mixed divisions will be assigned a handicap time differential to determine the top overall relay team.
