Title: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: rb on July 06, 2008, 03:13:18 AM Looking at the results from the super sprints and RTA it's hard to say what might happen here. This is probably Platinum.
Portland Fire Dragons Navy Dragonauts PI Eye Xtreme Reach Blu By U Save On or Bastion Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: threesea on July 09, 2008, 09:53:59 AM Navy is iffy for second...depends on who is and who is not on active duty. I think Save On could be a lot higher up. They won the Paddle Fest.

Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: BernMan on July 10, 2008, 03:54:09 PM Does the late entry causing a change in the race grid change any predictions?
Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: J on July 10, 2008, 08:59:06 PM Thanks for the vote of confidence Martini!!! Yea, bad timing for an injury to be sure... I hope to be back paddling for the Island Championships (and Victoria). We'll see... for now I can steer if needed and most importantly I can still lift a beer!!!;-)

Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: Bujin50 on July 13, 2008, 11:06:52 PM The predictions were close but no cigar. There was a dark horse or two in the running for Platinum this year. Comox Valley Dragonflies and the Dog Paddlers out of the Gorge. I don't see any results posted so this is how it played out in the Platinum B final-Dog Padllers (2:11.66) PI (2:11.82) Eye (2:12.37) Dragonflies (2:23.04)
Platinum A Final - Navy (2:07.37) Xtreme (2:09.18) Portland Fire Dragons (2:10.63) Dragonslayers (2:16.45). One of the paddlers on the Dragonslayers ripped the blade off of the shaft of his carbonfiber paddle within 4 strokes of the start of the race which may explain why they weren't close in the finish because they had good results every race this weekend. Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: vicpaddler on July 14, 2008, 10:12:17 AM Any one have a link to the results?
Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: selltile on July 14, 2008, 10:24:09 AM Another great Festival. Thanks to all. The tide change, low tide, wind and current caught out some steers. Poor start in the the Gold A. A few gentle and not so gentle meetings of the boats on some of the later races.
I want the salmon burger guy back next year! :lol: :lol: :lol: Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: ditchddragon on July 14, 2008, 04:33:18 PM http://www.nanaimodragonboat.com/raceresults.php
Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: kryssee on July 14, 2008, 11:40:19 PM Does anyone have video of the women's diamond A final? :P
Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: cookie on July 15, 2008, 10:10:45 AM How about the Ladies Platinum Division Final and the Diamond Mixed Final? Please?????? :pray:
Thanx a bunch! :D Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: jennybenny on August 08, 2008, 11:15:58 AM wow, I don't think the snarky comments about Jesus are necessary. If it's not your thing, great. But no need to thumb your nose at another person's conviction. Probably no harm was meant here, but it made me uncomfortable and I want to remind people to be respectful. thanks
Title: Re: Nanaimo Predictions Post by: Aquaman on August 08, 2008, 12:52:10 PM Huh?
Uh...Jenny, Jesus is a paddler on Blu By U, formerly with Calgary Race Club. While we have no problems taking potshots at our former teammate, we do appreciate the karma implications of putting down a saviour! No offense intended. :shock: |
