Kayak Krazy North Shore
Canoe Racing New Zealand
Lake Pupuke took on 45 Krazy Kayak paddlers on Saturday for a leg of the Kayak Krazy
10km series, and kindly provided some calm waters. The rain eased off improving the
comfort for the heaps of spectators who turned out to watch their children, partners,
grandchildren and parents take on the challenge. The highlights for North Shore was
having 12 paddlers race their first ever kayak race and the great line up of tyros and U14 at
the beginning of their separate courses.
The competitive spirit was strong. Aotea Clifton and Ethan Tall took out the Tyros. U14
was won by Jemma Hopkins and Oscar Williams. The rest of the paddlers competed in a
2km lap course, and after a false mass start, they were off for real. We could hear the
leading Open Men, Jasper Bats and Craig Simpkins, coming down the course. It was
a 10km battle with Jasper taking the final edge beating Craig by 0.01 sec in a time of
45.53.
The greatest battle was between the Cole siblings as they alternated the lead around the
course, with Thomas eventually bringing his boat over the line ahead, having already won
the U16 6km. I am sure the war is not yet over! Mum Cole (Alison) was racing too and
was the first Masters Woman. Rebecca Cole, in a time of 48.19 won the Open Womens,
Jordan McLarin and Rochelle Austin claimed firsts for the U18, Samalulu Clifton won the
U16 and Vaughan Reed the Masters Men. Ski was won by Lance Smith.
Over a hundred sausages, plus some
home baking was then consumed. Patron
Dennis Rae presented the well deserved
ribbons. Great paddling everyone and
thanks to all the families and friends that
came out to support. Many thanks to
Mark Lockwood who did a huge amount
of organising for it all to run smoothly
and the many other parents, partners,
officials and senior paddlers that helped out.
