Rich and I placed 2nd Overall in C-2 at Wildwater Nationals, 2nd in the sprints, and 1st in the Classic. The Classic was our best performance yet. 9.96% off the Men's Kayak winning time. This is the fastest C-2 percentage at a Nationals in at least 10 years.
On Saturday, we had an "eddie out" in the first of two runs in the Sprints. On Sunday in the Classic, we won the class by 27 seconds in a 13 minute race. It was not enough to overcome the percentage deficit from the sprint.
The Popp brothers had fast (12% off the M K-1), consistent sprint runs. We were truly impressed by these runs. We are also very happy to see some youth in the class. The guys are very solid in the big whitewater of the Skagit.
