| - | It is only natural that the creators of this wiki have //home town bias//. Bellingham waters and the Pacific Northwest are what we know the best. But **surfski.wiki** aspires to be an international surfski site, and it can only become more so if it adds the kind of detail about other great paddling locations that we have tried to provide about Bellingham and the local paddling waters that we are most at home in. Our first and foremost source of information has been our local paddler discussion group, [[https://groups.io/g/Whatcompaddlers|Whatcom Paddlers]] (since 2004), which has provided a ton of worthwhile information, advice, and humor. Our wiki editors have also drawn a lot of content and many references from prominent surfski websites like [[https://www.surfski.info/|surfski.info]], [[https://tcsurfski.com/|tcsurfski]], and [[https://surfskiracing.org/blog/|surfskiracing]] as well as from hundreds of online videos. We appreciate all of these rich resources but we believe the organization of information on the wiki also adds something valuable. | + | It is only natural that the creators of this wiki have //home town bias//.
