*I will be posting pics of various teams, if you are in the pic and are not cool with it, pm me and I'll take it off.
Also, don't fret if the pics are gone and all you see are red x's. that just means the bandwidth is over and the pics will be back next month.  :D Thanks!

*EDIT: Thanks for the info Pikachu, Echo, and BigTallTree!

Swordfish?


lol! that's not swordfish... they've got some sorta blue japanese motif goin' so i'm guessing it has no relation to dragonboating (since db is a chinese sport). my suspicision is that they're one of the "sake" or "wasabi" teams this year...

No, he's not the type of guy who would make Tuna take it off...however, he *is* the type of guy to plan bloody retribution ;)

That's iCAPSIZE, a nearly all-novice team that ended up in the Rec D Championship final....the same team that's getting a little too cozy with the SFU Dragon bytes in that other pic.

hmmn.  Repechage 7?  Was that the one where I attempted to take a movie clip of our "close" finish in lane 3? :lol:

Post by: kdleaf on June 22, 2004, 07:01:56 AM
Repechage 7 had M-Power in lane 3.

Would love to see some pics of that. It was an extremely close finish with Vancity Thunder beating us by .1 second for second place.


Title: Alcan 2004 Pics by forum members
Post by: BlueStreak on June 22, 2004, 08:15:31 AM
M-Power?....oops, I meant Repachage 6. It was a very tight finish between 2 teams - both in time (0.07 secs) and in side to side distance between the two boats (~ 1.5 meters :P)

Hi, just a heads up the team in the Japanese motif is the novice team-Ready, JET, Go! (Japanese Exchange and Teaching Programme)-first in Rec D consolation.

Thanks everyone for helping name the teams.  :D
I've only got a few more pics to add for now, as my photobucket account is already over 3800 hits and i've already used up 8% of my monthly bandwidth since i started uploading yesterday.  :oops:
It's safe to say these pics will be down in the next week, you will see sexy red x's in place of the pics until next month.  :wink:

ehh... guess this is what happens when the thread you post these pics up to gets 800+ hits. ;) Still, its nothing to get too worried about yet. The thread will porbably slow down in a week and with it, your bandwidth usage.

Time to make a little contribution to the thread ... (hosted on imageshack so I don't have to worry about pesky things like bandwidth usage :P)

That's Hugh Fisher forth from the back in the Bald Eagle boat.  Their timing looks pretty ragged compared to PR above it - just a heck of alot more power.  Look at the bow wake from each boat.  I think they had some Jericho paddlers on that team.
