DSKC Friday Time Trial - 11th April 08  (12 Apr 08)
DSKC Friday time trials are back on. The format is a handicap system where each paddler gets a start time with the objective of everyone crossing the line at around the 60min mark. Makes for some good chasing. Special thanks to Tammy for doing the race timings.  read more...

Another successful Squall. This time we had exciting conditions with an average swell of 1.2m out there. Rob Klok and Andrew Dunstan in singles, lead the field of almost all doubles with Pete & Christie right on their tail. Well done to everyone!

Dubai Squall - Race 2  (23 Feb 07)
Another cracker with the old record being broken by Peter and Chris setting a cracking pace over a course shortened by 300m. They managed to set a blistering average speed of 13.04km/h - YOU HAVE YOUR TARGET. There were other cracking performances from Rob Klok and the Clephane brothers who all managed higher avergae speeds than the previous record. Beware, Boyan will be after you all with vengance!!! :-) Lots of new faces, a few missing (hope the snow was good Linda and Wayne) and a few with paltry excuses of being sick, even if they got down there. Also we hit 30 paddlers in the race and hope to add an extra 10 by next month. SPREAD THE WORD!  read more...

Boyan FOR A CHANGE !!! pushed all the way by the D'Aubrey brothers......only a second between them .....see you next month. Wayno  read more...
