Here is My Story Written by the people running the competition.
Billy Harker can lay claim to pioneering ocean surfski racing as we know it today.
A passionate paddler, in 1998 he launched a series of races in Cape Town that would drive the sport’s popularity to new heights. A number of races were already established at the time, both in Cape Town and in Durban, but Harker attracted a level of Participation and sponsorship that, previously, was unseen.
Harker ran 25 races over those first six months – all on different courses – and the positive response led him to quit his job in early 1999 and invest his time solely on organising races.
It produced immediate results.
Men’s Health Magazine joined as the naming right’s sponsor, while several large businesses committed to the sport – despite many having next to no knowledge of the sport.
“It was a properly hard sell because I would have to spend the first 20 minutes trying to explain what a surfski was,” Harker recalls.
“The only people who knew what a surfski was were in the lifesaving movement, or who knew Oscar Chalupsky and that he paddled such a thing at the Molokai.”
From the year 2000 to 2013, Harker organised 35 races a year, in what became a golden period for the nation’s paddling and sparked the growth of the sport around the world.
More than 50 30 Minute TV programs were broadcast on national television.
www.surfski.co.za became the world’s first surfski website.
Harker set the World Record for the most Surfski Paddlers in a race, when 525 paddlers competed in the New Balance Season Starter Grading event in Durban in 2003.
Harker went on to play a crucial role in organising the first ever ICF World Championships in Portugal in 2013 and is still involved in South African racing today.
Billy Harker also established a Funraising campaign for the National Sea Rescue Institite (NSRI) in 2006 when they saved the Life of a Paddler. To Date this Fundraiser has raised over 8 Million Rand and has paid for Six Rescue Boats for the NSRI. This Fundraising campaign is still going today with over 3700 Surfski Paddlers still contributing every month.
