Loco stand up paddle boarding recently got in touch wanting a series of articles a little different to normal. The brand required something appealing to SUPers but also attractive to ‘other’ extreme sports aficionados – tricky!

W4CR is a charity that was set up by watersports fanatic David Tuttlebee who fought a long standing battle against cancer. His charity aims to raise awareness and drum up funds for continued research into a disease that affects so many lives.
Watersports 4 Cancer Research is a way all saltwater enthusiasts can use their hobby to help kick the BIG C into touch.
