Think you’re good at skipping stones? Richie Lamming is taking it to the next level with New Zealand’s very first Aotearoa Stone Skimming Championships, coming to Lake Hāwea this May. Richie explains how stone skimming became a competitive sport, what makes the perfect skim, and why Lake Hāwea is the ideal venue. With around 150 competitors, world‑record distances in play, and funds being raised for Melanoma NZ — plus hopes of sending Kiwi champions to the world champs in Scotland — this is a uniquely Kiwi event with a powerful purpose.
