The "Gondolin" or as it is called in English: Stand Up Paddle, is one of the water slide sport's most legendary from Polynesia. Today is the fastest growing water sport in the XXI century.
This sport is becoming increasingly more popular in Europe, and this is mainly because it does not require much preparation to lear in in flat water. Anyone can practice it, from the youngest to the oldest, and is a better way to relax and feel in harmony with water.

Más de 50 personas procedentes del País Vasco Francés, Navarra, Gipuzkoa, Bizkaia, Cantabria y Latinoamérica se dieron cita en este encuentro. Comenzó a las 11:00 en la rampa del 5º Puente del río Urumea, frente al Hotel Amara Plaza. De allí los “gondolers” fueron a la desembocadura del mar, organizandose para dibujar un S.O.S. de solidaridad por el Sahara.
La remada estuvo cargada de emotividad, los participantes portaban banderas Saharahuis y camisetas con el lema “S.O.S Sahara, Gu Gondolin, zu zergatik ez?”, o sea "Solicitamos Oportuno Socorro al Sahara. Nosotros somos Gondolin y ¿tú por qué no?”.
Tras la travesía, se inauguró el local del Club, situado en la calle Hernani nº 7. Se recogieron 200 kilos de comida para el Sahara y rindierose homenaje una a la causa a cargo de Dj Rasla y el grupo de Txalaparta del Baztan: JO ALA JO taldea.
