Hey, nothing beats paddling at DBA =p (It's not active anymore due to Olympic Site Construction). But i've paddled at all three facilities, and I must say, DBA was pretty ghetto. There was one huge shack, that contained any broken boats, paddles and life jackets and a little "building" with make shift changing rooms lol (and the changing rooms only lasted my 1st year of paddling... after that, iono where we went to change =S, but i always just rushed home/went out to eat after and rushed to the showers when I got home.

Lol, Im one of those ppl too, I just prefer changing to dry clothes and then going out to eat/home, then taking a nice long shower in the comfort of home...helps if you drive, coz for me, its like 5-10 min to get home. If I bussed, then I'd have to rethink the whole shower-before-i-go-home strategy haha

We had a much slower rate in the semis and the finals, and posted better times too! (Incl. our personal best of 2:01 this season! =]) RGL did great too, you guys had really tough heats through out the day, with SI:B in pretty much all your heats, and Masters / FCRCC thrown into the mix in some heats. Which one were you?

Yeah, haha I sat by your tent once and talked to Derek for a while when we were waiting for our semi-final match. But yeah, it is a RGL tradition to race shirtless, but isn't it also a requirement to have a 6 pack and nice arms too?
We got kinda a scare in our semis, we knew we'd have stiff competition from Masters of D'Zone and that it'd be a close race, but the boat in Lane 2 (Burnaby Fire Fighters) kept up with us in the first 100m until we pulled ahead. (We had a practice race with them on thursday practice where they only went 200m, but we were able to pull ahead from the start). It wasn't until after the race that they said they were paddling exhibition with 17-18 guys and 2-5 girls (Mixed heats require 8 girls min.)

What a beautiful day for races.... I'm glad i stopped by to say hi to old friends/teammates. I wish i could have been on the water paddling too though.
I might be hitting the water a few times in July to practice for the WPFG that are coming here in August... I've been recruited for a team of decent paddlers. We'll see if I've still go it. Haha!

I believe i speak for the rest of the db community that we certainly wont object to your women member's new jersey design hahahaha!
Speaking of which, I still have yet to see the rumors of nude db'ing Quote:

I don't even need to jump into any crew practices. haha Going to have to work my way up to 200m sprint intensity though. All 200m sprints for the WPFG.

xXDragonXx should be able to answer you on that since i wasnt there to see who was wearing the white hoodie and shorts, while ur at it, get him to do intros, and say you are from the Ridiculously Good Looking team and that the team name is a prerequisite to membership, thats bound to break some ice lol!

He's been on the water since he was ~14yrs old in sprint kayaks, frequently paddles at the Nationals, and is, stupid fast. I'm not sure when the Men's outrigger practices are anymore, but usually early saturday or sunday mornings. If you manage to find an outrigger left over, grab it and join them for the work out and you'll see how fast he is.
I've got to start joining them for practices as well, to prep for the NTTs next year.

My hobbies have dwindled while settling into the job, so I need to pick paddling back up. I did a for-fun 5km paddle a few weeks ago and managed to get a 27.xx minute time, which isn't bad. But, if I want a spot on the team for the National Team Trials next year, I've got a lot of work ahead of me. Everyone from this year has all of this year's paddling jump on me. I was only ever middle-of-the-pack in terms of False Creek speed, and people have moved up and gotten faster since I stopped. LOTS of work ahead of me if I want to make the team. Just means my girlfriend will have to see me ~4hrs less per day than she sees me now.

To answer your prev question, i saw the FCRCC Regatta pics and can confidently say that the white hoodie-ed and shorts girl is indeed from the beat, her name is Cindy. Quote:
