One Shot: Cuba to Florida | SUP Magazine



Ben Friberg has a penchant for SUP records. Last year he set the record for the most miles covered in 24 hours when he paddled 238 miles straight down the Yukon River. On August 2, he paddled into history again, becoming the first person to SUP from the shores of Cuba to the shores of Florida. Friberg, 35, covered the 111 miles from Havana to Key West in a grueling 28 hours and six minutes. We caught up with the Chattanooga, Tennessee musician to get the scoop on burning 9,800 calories in one go, dry heaving in stiff headwinds and his first wobbly steps back on American soil.  More; One Shot: Cuba to Florida | SUP Magazine
