Yes, bit the bigger and better goals requires increasing effort, skills, and talent from the paddlers. It can't be done if we have even a very small bunch of paddlers who could barely keep up. (Not to point out names.) I don't care, but the higher level we aim for, the more each and every paddler need to be accountable for his/her own skill level and dedication.
I don't want to raise the expectation for the team if we're not 100% committed, technique and effort wise. (And I mean 100%- everyone including the the spares. If we really want to reach the top, we'll definitely need to start clamping down on technical offenders.)
