Beat goes on - Dragon Boat Race

Throughout the summer the sound of drums can be heard on lakes and rivers around the world - it's the time of the Dragon Boat .
There are competitions testing each team of paddlers and from first hand experience, the power and speed of the Dragon Boats is best felt from the participants perspective.

@415josola its supposed to be a technique.. however, they just seem to be paddling with timing.

[415josola]

the lion dancing was horrible lol. but for the dragon boat do you guys use a technique or you guys just paddle?

Hey both of my main teams :-)

This one is great - so many different clips combined! You guys spent so much time with us and helped us promote our sport and club in Kelowna. You made this 10th anniversary season very special already. Thank you so much!

See you on the water! Come paddle with us next year!
