Looking for something else to do after all the white water training, want to maintain your fitness, then why not start training for some flat water events.
This race, (done in pairs) is approximately 19kms in length, and each pair must paddle the whole distance together in individual SINGLE crafts. The result being the partnership that works best together will come out on top.
All pairs must remain together (within 20 metres at all times) i.e. wash-ride their way to the finish. Times will be taken as the second paddler in the pair crosses the finish line. No pair may wash-ride another pair or any power craft at any time during the event.
