CONGRATS LEGACY!!!  Comp C Champions!!!

Long live dragonboat and cheers to all 2008 Rio Tinto Alcan participants!

Hats off to the Alcan festival organizers for putting on a first class show.

Awesome competition out there this year.

....and no rain!!!!! 8))

I agree it was a great weekend and the weather finally cooperated this year.  It was great racing all weekend and every heat was battled over.  In the end you have to sit back and just say "WOW ... What a ride."  :clap:

Great racing everyone!

Congratulation to all the winners and thanks to all the teams for the good races. :D It was classy of a Calgary Race Club for having pre-race handshakes.

ANy idea how long 'til the ranking gets updated?

yeah i have to echo that comment... CRC were definitely very classy, with not only pre-race hand shakes but post-race ones as well, and just an all around sense of sportsmanship

Just give me another day or so... :)

They do this, so that they can steal your beer later, in the beer garden...  :lol:

The "Shocker" needs to be fed!

Great Festival!!  Congratulations to everyone that picked up hardware. 

Awesome to see all the familiar faces out there.  Hope to see you again next year!!

What happened to Bald Eagles in the open final?  The results show they were DQ'd.

Wash riding 101  :shock:

Surfin' Hugh actually side swiped the Where's Bob (outrigger pick-up crew) boat and caused half the right side to stop paddling for a few strokes.

 Hugh will be Hugh and most Comp teams know he will try to wash ride and in turn will do what they can to make it hard for him .
