Downwind

Downwind Sportswear has its origin in open ocean surfski paddling.

Paddling Downwind means to paddle with the wind in one direction.
The masters of the sport are not just good paddlers, it takes a great deal of skill paddling in the ocean & reading the swell in order to minimise your paddling efforts.

In Durban, South Africa, one of the top destinations in the world for downwind paddling and home of some of the top downwind paddlers, the Downwind paddling community is rapidly growing.

Based in Durban, we are constantly expanding our product range and working with top surfski paddlers designing and upgrading our products.
