Re: 6.3 ICF Changes to the Rules relating to Buoyancy Jackets

Yes fair enough. I guess they are working on a 2022 model

So, I'd suggest that we have a transition period and postpone the domestic rule change until the 2023 season to give people time to replace kik.
Seems a fairly sensible option given the amount of ST2020 people have out there and the fact you can't currently purchase a Peak ST from their website.

Re: Prem Rankings

From 01/09/21 Meeting Calculation of prem ranking: there are a maximum of 6 prem races in the current season. Following discussion and a vote, it was concluded that the best 4 results would be used to calculate the end of year ranking, using the following formula: 50% of races plus 1 race. This form...

I’m in Mike. Just copy what they did the weekend before with a different course. There is enough of us to make this happen I am sure of it

Re: GRANDTULLY DIV 1 28/29 AUGUST 2021

Just wondered if you are already part of a club that runs a slalom or part of a club that wants to run this slalom. We all want and need more slaloms to run for the future of the sport but I do wonder how many of those in Div 1 and prem are involved in running an event at this level? Yes a Prem & t...

Re: GRANDTULLY DIV 1 28/29 AUGUST 2021

Why? They need more races not less.

Can this weekend be used for a team that want to run an event in Div1?

Re: OHM Training Device?

Same idea as using a bungee or a rope around the boat to increase resistance when training, but it has some much bigger blocks to add even more resistance. Should probably work up from a bungee to thick rope and then OHM device rather than jumping right in - I find the effect of a bungee on my WWR ...

Re: OHM Training Device?

It’s a rubber block or series of rubber blocks that fit to the underneath of your boat. Causes resistance and there for makes it harder.

I’ve got a set on order for my daughter. She’s looking forward to testing them out

Re: Abandoning the season?....

It could be argued that in 2021 there could be double the amount of promoted as there was only one in 2020.

Re: Abandoning the season?....

So in 2021 there will be the same paddlers as in 2020 bar one that got promotion with three straight wins. There are four other paddlers that are on two wins. None of these wins were on their home course as far as I’m aware. With the Div1 girls you have the issue with low entries that only the winne...

Non quorat classes and paddle ups

Just an idea

We have first race of the season on Saturday

C1W has 4 paddlers. So not quorat. If there was one paddle up that would make 5 (but still not quorat)

Wouldn’t it help everyone if that one paddle up did make it quorat

I know. A can of worms
