[Waters Edge]

Water's Edge wishes to thank the entire paddle sport community, for another successful Dragon Boat - Event Management Season! It is you...the paddlers, the teams, the volunteers and the entire Water's Edge Event Management staff team who are an integral part of our organization at these events. Thank you.

Our 2007 season finished off with a bang at the Calgary Nationals! That being said, get ready to fall into some exciting new courses and clinics with Water's Edge this Autumn, Winter, and early Spring!

Looking to leave to cold this winter? Join us at the adventure OC surf camp in Maui!
 
In need of some sunshine in March? The Arizona paddle sport camp awaits you!

Stay tuned for updates to our website in the coming weeks with all the upcoming info and registration!

Paddles Up!

Hi Kat/Jackie,

Thanks for the great job in Calgary, much appreciated. Nice to see you guys smiling even during the cold wet rain.

Looking forward to training with you soon!

any info on Maui, Puppy?  is not that far off and there is nothing on the site about it.

Arizona doesn't do it for me as a place for outrigger but oh I am so tempted by Maui.

[Martini]

As someone who attended Arizona, and three other Water's Edge festivals this year, I take my hat off to you folks. You always do an excellent job and always have a smile on your faces. Looking forward to seeing you again next year. Maui is sooooo tempting.

This is from the website:

*24 spots only*

Water's Edge has once again gathered together a team of highly experienced coaches and instructors with a diversity of skill sets in outrigger canoe. Learn from those who paddle and teach in Hawaiian waters daily, as well, gleen tips, tricks and skills fom our Canadian coaches who have a vast amount of experience paddling in these waters. Our team endeavors to inspire participants to confront challenges and overcome limits.
More about the camp:


The camp will cover instruction in surf and stroke development skills for OC-6, OC-2, and OC-1, including;

    * How to "read" the water to find the best line,
    * Using surf to increase hull speed,
    * Gain more confidence in a variety of water conditions through daily down-wind runs
    * Increase understanding of how winds and waves affect boat-run

Both novice and experienced paddlers will have the opportunity to build their skills in outrigger surfing. Paddlers will have plenty of opportunity to put their newly aquired skills to the test through twice daily on-water sessions. Your week of fun, sun and surf will wrap-up with an Outrigger Surf Challenge amongst both camp participants and instructors followed by a traditional Hawaiian Luau.

wow... this maui paddle clinic is so damn sexy.  i hope they release info on the cost soon... *drool*   
thanks for the info puppy.

It won't take much to convince me to sign up for Maui if the stars are correctly aligned. But whether I am able to go or not, one thing I hope they do is introduce people to the Hawaiian cultural traditions that are strongly interwoven with outrigger canoe. FCRCC had a "boat blessing ceremony" the other day for one of our new OC6s and I thought it was pretty neat.

I think there's a business to be had doing *several* paddling clinics in Hawaii... Mid Novemeber would be a good time for a clinic as well, as there's no snow yet (not even a Silver Star) making it one of the crappiest months of the year to be in Vancouver... 

[brainiac]

I noticed there's more info on the Maui paddle camp at the Waters Edge web site and the registration date has shifted to September 24th.

i got a feeling this event will be filled up quickly.  24 spots only... hmm... maybe they can add more spots if it's super popular?!
