Welcome back, epyic crew 👋❤️
This week’s issue brings a great mix of water, wind, trails, and clear coast days, and our features set the pace. Hike Tribe’s HikeFit program is a strong early new year goal, and Salt Session’s Kilsby Sinkhole freediving retreat in December offers calm, clear water that is hard to match. Add in paddles, dives, rides, and social hikes just outside your doorstep, and your weekends fill themselves with adventure. And, our epyic soft launch is running a few days behind. Clearly I got ahead of myself there, but the countdown is still on.
Much love, and see you out there.
Your Team epyic.com (Chris & Stella)
