Day Uno 🇲🇽

Our team heading into opening ceremony looking very sharp, thanks to Harraways for sponsoring these amazing uniforms !!

After a big day on the water for NZ our highlight was seeing Diaz McKay get a PB at worlds!! Very proud team mates! We also enjoyed watching Meg trick Will slalom and trick along with Courtney’s slalom today, we are all super great full for our support and the opportunity to be here. We are recharging and preparing ourselves with another busy day on the water tomorrow with Meg slaloming and Courtney tricking !! Big things to come 🤘🏼

Let the games begin!! The NZ team has made it to Mexico and made themselves familiar to the beautiful site of Bocalaguna. Despite a few of the team members getting hit with what we think is food poisoning, the team is in good spirits going into this event. We have a day off today then we have will and Diaz slalom and tricking tomorrow. Feel free to tune into the live stream! Copy this link -
