BIO

Morene joins NSP as an accomplished long-distance paddler and engaged waterwoman who loves to explore the waterways of the Netherlands, alone or together with M & M clients from M&M SUP Amsterdam. So anyone looking to check out Amsterdam from a perspective unlike any other in the city; give Morene a ping to see when the next tour or event is planned.

From Morene:
“I started paddling my local canals in 2008 and opened the first sup school in Amsterdam in 2011, M&M SUP Amsterdam. In 2010 I attended the 11 city tour for the first time with a team and paddled that race 4 times since, securing two 1st places as a team. I’ve also done the 11 city race alone three times and became Dutch champion back in 2012 in the 12’6 class.

Today, racing is not my main focus anymore but I do paddle almost every day. I’ve started working on our SUP adventure packages. Long distance races such as the Dordogne Integrale in France are on my schedule as well. (editor: That’s April 2019 – do check them out!).

When it’s off-season I organise SUP trips abroad to places such as Bonaire, Curaçao, South Africa, Spain and Slovenia and I love to show people these beautiful places by paddleboard. Whenever I paddle on my own I usually grab a Ninja 14 x 25 for its flatwater qualities and I am looking forward to add the 2019 version to my quiver, along with a Carolina 14 x 22.5 for open water runs.

When I take clients out cruising, we usually explore the waterways with NSP Allrounders or Allrounder soft-tops.“
