Great to see a paddler from Iran in the race and finish in the top ten as well.
OC Paddling can open up the world to each other.
I wonder where he trains ?
Ciao a tutti,
well the Iranian guy live in Rome, so he can drive to the sea in 30 minutes.
The race has been amazing paddlers from all over the world , Giacomo Foti has been incredible, a real Hawaiian man (Joel the best paddler i have ever see) .
Conditions were great, you know the organizer are from Rome so they made a local call to Gesus to ask for sun, wind and waves.
Thanks to all the paddlers that took part, you all guys are incredible.
results can be found now on;

Persian Gulf I presume. Being chased by pirates will make anyone fast ;-)
