Pump House Slalom Race

On Sunday we had a little local race in the mighty town of Ottawa. I had only paddled my new boat twice before and was wide awake at 4 that morning because of jetlag, so wasn't as prepared for this race as i would of liked to be. First run didn't go so well touching 4 gates and being told i had to go before my start time. Second runs went abit better having the 2nd fastest flat time out of everyone, behind the local boy but touching 4 gates again put me out of any chance of making medal. Letting them all go to the bloody Australians. 
RESULTS
1st Australia
2nd Australia
3rd Australia
4th Laurence NZ
5th Myself 
6th Cole NZ

And Kelly got 2nd in C1w and K1w,
will have the rest of the results later.
