Where did Roli finish up?  Afterall they are sending their team to Calgary for the race-offs, did they not make the final?  Seems hard to believe, though I did note Roli and Alpha were in the same first heat.

Roli sent a mix of their Masters team and paddlers from the Philippines team.  I believe quite a few paddlers who are going to Calgary didn't paddle in Harrison.  I think they came 5th overall?  Seeding was based on your times in the first 2 heats, then by placement in semi and final.  However, barnacles on the bottoms of those boats (+Barney boat) could account for some skewwed times.

Overall, aside from a few glitches, a great first year event!

Ok......is everybody too chicken to ask?

Who really won the event?
Who really was in the final race?

There's a NASTY rumour going around   ....do spill someone.....or has this been edited?....I haven't been on for awhile...might have missed something!!!!

You don't read, do you?

In the finals the teams racing were Alpha Dragons, TD, Swordfish and Sudden Impact. In the end, TD finshed first, followed by Alpha and Sudden Impact.

And as for the rumour... Swordfish physically came first in the final race but was DQed after protests from TD and Alpha for them having one or two paddlers that were not on their original roster.

In case anyone wants to see them, the final race results are up on the Fraser Valley DB web site:

As mentioned elsewhere, Swordfish were disqualified in the D1 final.

OK... I'm looking through the results to update the rankings/standings that some people are waiting for... am I correct that for the first two rounds they basically threw all the teams in one big pot? For the semi's and final's it looks like they seeded all the teams based on results (ties broken by culmulative times) and then pulled out the women's teams? So in essence, the 24 teams entered into this race was actually 16 Mixed teams and 8 Women's?

I think so.
