Was just checking up the team bios and saw that there's alot of canadian teams attending this year...

12 teams on my count:
- Masters
- Concord Pacific
- Deep Cove Red Tied
- Magnum
- Jetstart
- FLCC Mixed
- Fluid Motion
- Sisters In Sync
- Pond Scum
- SIB
- LifeScan
- TD Lightning

There's probably more teams attending that I dont know of.
If I recall correctly, I believe there's a good east team coming, but I cant remember the team name..

It's going to be awesome festival with such a huge canadian representation!

Any talk of teams joining forces for women's, men's, masters races? I'll be down there with Pond Scum and would be very interested in gettting in some extra racing as part of a men's or masters squad.

I'll be down there and wouldn't mind hopping into a women's boat if one is being organized. What's the age for a master's boat?  I'd be in for that if I'm old enough.

Magnum will be joining forces with Masters for the mens and womens, and I believe they might have enough for their own master's category lol

I've heard talks a while back of Jetstart teaming up with another team but cant remember which team.

There is only one other Canadian team that I can see Deep Cove Catch 22 (women).

Looks like the Canadian teams will have their hands full with the Americans, can we sweep all the golds/silvers/bronzes this year? Predictions anyone?

Hi fellow paddlers,

My team will be going to the SF dragon boat race and we're interested in pairing up with another Canadian team for the gender races. (not sure about the Masters race, but it's open for discussion)
We're a Rec A/B team that practices out of False Creek twice a week, and we've been a fixture on the Vancouver dragon boat scene for a good number of seasons. We're high spirited and fun!

If your team is interested in joining with us for the women's and men's races in SF, please send me a pm and I'll respond.

Paddles up!

It'll be quite a long shot. I'm pretty sure that the American teams took notice of the huge Canadian contingent and bracing themselves for battle. Laughing No specific prediction but the finals are going to be nothing short of wars. Very Happy

Everyone bring your Cda flags and let's see how much red and white we can show in the paddler's village.  A Canadian domination would be awesome.

Good Afternoon All,

Tide & Paddled is headed to San Fracisco. We're racing mixed division, but if we can pick up 5 women, we'll be able to race i the womens' cup too.

Drop me a line if you're interested in teaming up with us for these heats.

Thanks,
Sandy
