Thanks to all of you who entered the #PalmSpringShot 2017 photo competition. We had a blast going through over 250 entries from across the world and had the incredibly hard task of choosing the winner. Whether it’s a SUP session with your friends, some creek boating or a nice day out fishing, we’re glad you all got out there and had some fun.

It was a close call between many of you, but we chose our favourites based on which ones made us want to get out there for some springtime paddling. So without further ado, here are the runners-up in no particular order …

Congratulations to Del! Her enthusiasm for springtime paddling makes us want to get out there and have some fun on the water. A stash of Palm goodies will soon be on its way, including a limited edition team sweater, hat, and T-shirt, as well as a Poncho changing robe, boardies, rash vest, dry bag and more.

Well done to everyone else who submitted photos. We’re always keen to hear about your adventures, so keep paddling, have fun and don’t forget to tag us at #palmequipment.
