Outrigger World Championships

 

This is the V-1, a rudderless version of a single outrigger that requires a lot of skill to steer. Will Graham regain his title as ‘fastest haole’?

Today is Graham’s first day of competition at the Va’a World Championship race in Calgary.  He went to the 2008 event in Sacramento but missed the 2010 one in New Caledonia because we were in Sweden.  This year he has been training in Saskatoon in Marathon boats and in outrigger only when he was in Vancouver.  He also took on the Team Manager role for Team Canada and because the event is in Canada there is a VERY big team.  He has been doing a great job and I look forward to seeing his results, especially with the promising OC-6 crew.  Good luck Graham!
