WORLD CHAMPS 2010 B-Final 7th







Being at a World Champs is something amazing. Standing around and racing the worlds best paddlers fills you with such energy you cant describe. Unfortunatly the weather turned for the worst with rain and strong winds hitting the course making it very unpleasent to be on the water but as we always say, "you cant choose race conditions". We had 3 heats and 2 semis to make it through to a final. We didnt have the greatest race and struggled to find the rythem but squeezed into the B-Final by 0.2sec. Having only squeezed into the B-final we new we had to prove to ourselves that we were better than that and have a better final race. We had an awesome start and held it right the way through to finish 7th. We had now beaten crews that we had never beaten before and were alot closer to the winners aswell.
