Was their coach that was wearing the hat some asian guy? If so, it's probably Kerry and he's one of those guys that's really involved in the db community and coaches Waverunners I believe. But don't underestimate waverunners though, they seem to be a hungry team that want to improve upon last year's results where they were in Comp C with RGL and only lost by only .2 seconds to you guys. But this year seems to be much different than last. Like magnum, eye of the dragon only has around 60% of their boat from last year, and the rest are paddlers from different teams.
And don't worry about beat/magnum, they both have a full boat now with a few spares and a spot reserved for an indonesian import

Oh, illuminate, do u know of a guy named Derek on your team? If so, tell him I'll see him this weekend!
