Paddle Monster’s Larry Cain Sits Down with Caroline Kuntzel of Denmark

December 1, 2022By

Caroline Kuntzel of Denmark burst onto the international SUP racing scene this August (2022), winning the sprint event at the European Championships. She followed this up with an incredible run through to the ISA Worlds in November, earning podium finishes at the ICF Worlds, the London APP event and the ISAs while winning the sprint and overall titles at the APP event in Korea. Amazingly, she did all this coming directly off an injury which kept her from paddling for most of the summer.

Meet this amazing young athlete and hear her story of how she got started in SUP and all about her training, her racing, what drives and motivates her, how she overcame her injury and her plans for next season. And follow her on Instagram at @carolinekuntzel
