The seventh annual Rainbow Sandals Gerry Lopez Battle of the Paddle was held at Salt Creek Beach in Dana Point for the first time in the event’s history from Oct. 4-5. The move from Doheny State Beach, where the event had been held in years past, caused many to learn the new layout on the fly.

Nevertheless, hundereds of the world’s most elite stand-up paddleboarders, and amateurs alike, descended upon the Dana Point shoreline to compete over the two-day stretch.

The Battle of the Paddle also features one of the largest prize purses on the SUP racing calendar. This year’s total purse was over $26,000.

There were several strong showings from San Clemente residents at the event.

San Clemente’s Candice Appleby won the Elite SUP Elite division with a time of 46:55, taking home the $3,000 first-place prize.

Rob Rojas finished first in the Distance SUP Individual event. Rojas, a San Clemente resident, looped the roughly 10.25-mile course in 1:18:55, nearly two minutes ahead of the next closest competitor.
