World Cup

Someone should have coined this the World Cup race of the year. 'One race to rule them all'. Ok, I borrowed a bit from Tolkien - who happened to be a pure bred Saffa but I digress.

Had a look at the field and seems to me barring Bouman, Eckstein and Erray the best surfski paddlers are there. I cant think of any serious contenders that aren't there. Mousley touts Hank, Rambo roots for TJ, there are a host of fast paddlers there.

In my books he/she who wins on Saturday has won the world cup of surfski paddling 2011!

Cheers

(Sven - bet you one cold one a Saffa's takes this one )

Hong Kong that is.

Some word association.

Hank = Tank = Machine = Winner = No Contest...

Looks like you boys owe Sven a beer!

Dicko - Does this mean you know who won? Are there some early results up somewhere?

When all else fails......check facebook.

Yes I did, then I realized that the Tim Jacobs article headlining SS.I was about him winning, not Rambos prerace article. Wow!

Eish, this humble pie tastes good!

Congratulations Tim J.

Can't wait for the video.

Tim J earned himself some serious bragging rights walking away from that field. Looks like the year when the Saffas bow to the Aussies.

Sven - you should have accepted the wager.

TJ is a machine. Well done buddy.

I'd probably pop Clint into the mix as one who could have been at the pointy end yesterday.
