Ideas for races

Just been brain storming about races that would be fun, was wondering what kinds of races everyone would like to paddle in

Also if there are people here who have hosted races, what are some important steps that should be focused on?

2 or 3 piece OC1 canoes

How long before we have 2 or 3 piece OC1s. The day must be near.

Xmas Day

So what are people doing today?
We're heading out for a morning Maliko run. Food this afternoon.
Merry xmas to all, malasadas and honey donuts for everyone.

Please can we have a summer racing series?

I'm baffled why the whole paddling world hasn't revolted yet against the idea of racing OC-1s in the winter and spring.

I don't even care anymore about the ridiculousness of trying to be in top shape at two opposite ends of the year, I'm just sick of paddling in the dark and cold. If we all agreed to put our paddles down between November and February, i think that we'd all be warmer and happier people.

paddles

i was thinking the other day about how some people use really big paddles, (width wise) and how some people use even smaller paddles, but do just as well and even better. it seems to me that good paddles need to grab alot of water, without cavitation, but at the same time get deep in the water to grab the denser water.

i was also thinking about what if you had a paddle with a 180sq. inch blade, and someone else had lets say a 110sq. inch paddle, so it seems that the person with the bigger paddle would of course move more water, but if the person with the smaller paddle could take two strokes for every one of the bigger paddle, would it even matter, i guess strength is the variable that is not added, but whats your guys opinion?
