There is no maximum age for registration. For all participants, it is necessary to provide a medical certificate proving that you are able to participate in the stand-up paddle race or a valid competitive surfing license (French or international). Each participant must also accept the Nautic Paddle discharge.
However, participants must be at least 13 years of age by the day of the race. For minors, parental authorization is mandatory.
Pre-registration is free of charge. A participant may pre-register as a solo participant or as a member of a group with a maximum of 4 participants.
Note: Of course, one person cannot be registered more than once, either individually or as a member of a team. Any attempt to cheat will result in the disqualification of the person and, if applicable, his team.
NB: It is recommended to amateurs who have already practiced paddle in competition to register in the PRO category.
There will be a lottery on this day to determine the participants. One person registered solo will have the same likelihood of being selected as a team of 4 persons:
All of those who are pre-registered will receive afterwards an e-mail to inform them of the selection or their placement on the waiting list.
The people selected in the lottery will receive an e-mail with a link allowing them to finalize their registration.
The list of participants in the Nautic Paddle will be published on this site on Thursday 7 October.
Registration includes:
Note: time for registration is limited!
Those selected in the lottery will have about two weeks to finalize their registration. At the time of the lottery, the persons who are not selected are placed on a waiting list. All participants who have not validated their registration prior to the deadline will give up their place to those on the waiting list.
For the size of the boards, paddles between 10'6' and 14' are allowed. Rigid and inflatable paddles are allowed.
If your board is not of the required size, you will not be able to start the race and participation fees will not be refunded.
Except in some cases (partners of the organization), you cannot be on the same board with several people (big mama, SUP dragon...).
IMPORTANT - The organization does not provide boards, everyone must come with their own equipment (bought or rented for the occasion).
Some exhibitors in the sliding sector of the Nautic Paris Boat Show offer limited quantities of boards for rent. Une liste non exhaustive sera mise en ligne sur ce site.
