For Halloween, a slice of ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ … on paddleboards … in Utah

Stand-up paddleboard enthusiasts Chris Knoles and Roxy Christensen took to the water at Bountiful Pond on Tuesday in what has become a Halloween tradition. For four years in a row they have dressed up, this time as the characters Jack and Sally Skellington from the movie “The Nightmare Before Christmas.” Last year it was Chewbacca and Rey from the Star Wars movies.

“We paddle year-round but actually paddle more in the winter,” said Knoles, who carries on the tradition at Christmas, dressing up in something festive and paddling on the Great Salt Lake, where the high salinity usually keeps the water from freezing.
