I think that team is made up of young guys from huahine and the race is a 12 man change race from Tahiti around Moorea and back. A distance of around 86 km or 53 miles, first team usually around six hours.

Mahalo for the response. I've been keeping up with the Tahitian paddlers and I don't recognize any of the names, pretty cool. Is there any way to get ahold of video footage, preferably DVD, of the races in Tahiti, V1, V6, etc...?
