We’re thrilled to bring the Synergy Tour to Lincolnshire—Chris’s birthplace—and connect with a whole new community of paddlers. This special stop is hosted by rising UK retailer Drift Boardsports, with on-water support and facilities provided by Covenham Sailing Club.
This exclusive event offers a unique chance to learn about and test the latest Black Project paddles and fins, with around 40 paddles and 20 fins available for demo. Plus, attendees will enjoy special Synergy Tour-only deals through Drift Boardsports for same-day purchases.
We will be running two sessions, each with a specific focus so that we can give you the best possible support. The morning session will be geared towards racing e.g. Hydro SynergyX, Hydro SprintX, while the afternoon session will be focused on touring and all-water e.g. Hydro TempoX, and Lava as well as our new FUSION adjustment system.
Join founder Chris Freeman, your local retailer, and the Black Project team for an intimate, invite-only event where performance meets community.
Drift Boardsports is one of Black Project’s newest retail partners in the UK, and they’re already making waves. Led by owner Ben Burley, Drift has quickly become a go-to destination for passionate paddlers in the northeast of England. With a growing stock of Black Project paddles and fins, and a commitment to premium gear and service, they’re helping more paddlers elevate their performance. We’re excited to bring the Synergy Tour to Drift for the first time and support their mission to grow the UK paddling community.
Note: This event is being held at the sailing club and not the shop location.
