lol, thats pretty close to average (avg is 4 hours i believe), expect long wait times between races for comp division most of the times, coz more oft than not, its early morning 1st race and late in the day 2nd race.
Yep, Magnum always goes for Kelowna, Casa Loma is nice!
The best paddling weather is one where there is not a direct sun over your head while you are waiting on the water. ie: lining up, waiting for boat traffic, delays, etc.

forgot to add, Victoria is the worst, sometimes you wait on the water for abt 15 min or so under the sun waiting for ferries to clear. (sun zapping ur energy away)

And nahh, pretty much all the girls on our boat are all really chill. It's actually the guys that are really competitive on the team (but not to the point where they are unsportsmanlike or unrealistic) .. and I can see 1-2 people from whom people might view as snobby, but definately not the girls.
And is it you that always goes OCing with Derek?

Yes it is, you guys are always wondering who I am, I feel your eyes on me
I almost joined Magnum actually, but you guys practiced too much, didn't think I could do it.

FYI: Tent assignments are out.
I'm not particularly happy about the last-minute changes which affected our first heat, but what else can you do?

oh yeah, if the dragon warriors are as strong as people say then you'll probably end up 3rd instead of 2nd and have to race 30 mins earlier

Boats in the middle are protected from the tide that the outside teams have to deal with. The teams seated in Lane 4 and Lane 5 are usually projected to win.

| Even though the board is supposedly anonymous, this city is way too small (and the dragonboat community even smaller) to say anything negative about someone on a public forum. I've been in the community only 3 years, but I've seen my fair share of shennanigans, innuendo, and ego-bashing.
All I can say is that the women I know on the Magnum boat are definitely competitive. Good on Magnum for recruiting them.

Wow..all this time I thought "Magnum" was some other team, not the one from UBC or Dragonhearts.
Interesting to see they've advanced so much. I was one of the few to start up the team back in highschool and it's always been really competitive.

Jeez, Tracer, how could discuss so much and not let me know about this site? (Thanks a lot Terry.)
Also hi, hopefully you're having fun with RGL so far, Illuminate.  By the time you're reading this, though, Alcan's probably already over anyway, but good luck anyway!

Great day today, we got silver in Comp C, edged out of gold by .15 seconds. Our first sub 2 min time ever. Nice job on 4th in Comp A Magnum, you guys should try for the national championships next year

You guys have become our new targets to surpass... previously it was lifescan... until today
But overall it was a good day, weather was nice... and we posted our best times ever at 2 minutes... hopefully we'll hit the sub 2 minute mark someday

Haha, congratulation to both of you, RGL and Riptide.
It definitely wasn't an easy race day for us Magnum peeps. Seriously, we came fourth and the six-second difference between us and the third-place proves how dominate FCRCC and other top teams can be. Though, it was our first time ever to have reached this high, and we're pretty happy even without bringing home a medal. It was also our first ever Guts and Glory race, and boy, it was damn wet. Reminds me of UBC Longboat with just slightly less contact. Also, the tide is mega-helpful with breaking time records, as the weekend was the first time ever we've broken the two minutes mark.
Again, congratulation to you and your teams!

We need some sort of a target to keep pushing ourselves, so hopefully there will be more races with you guys | |
