Next week I head off to Hawaii with fellow RAP coaches Cheryl Skribe and Leanne Zrum and seven other incredible Canadian women to battle the elements and competition in these two Hawaiian channel crossings! Team members are from 8 cities and nine clubs!! Huge thanks to Kialoa for providing us with their new Nehu paddle! This is an awesome paddle which I highly recomend! If you're looking for an OC paddle and want more info, email me and I'll share what I look for. Thanks also to Level Six, One Apparel and Lululemon for assistance with our uniforms. Looking forward to seeing all my paddling friends in Hawaii!! Kamini |

Nostalgia is setting in with my racing here done yesterday and just one more day of coaching left. As coach of the premier mixed and premier open Canadian teams as well as paddling with premier mixed, it's been a busy week!! I have a phenomenal group of athletes here and look forward to seeing what the open team can accomplish today in the showcase event of the whole regatta: the premier open 500m. The mixed team did great with a win in the 2000m, silvers in the 200m and 500m and a forth in the 1000m. We were all pleased after the medal performances as we raced our absolute best with the only hint of disappointment coming after the 1000's which we felt we did not execute to our best ability. One more day of suffocating heat and fingers crossed for no storm delays this afternoon!! |

Training hard and smart always pays off. Vancouver Island's Comox Women's Outrigger Crew travelled to Australia to complete in the covetted Hamilton Island regatta in June. They excelled in many of the events; singles, doubles and OC-6's. I was pleased to be asked to provide the training program for the team's preparation. Team member Michele writes: "Right Angle Performance provided our crew with a training program which brought us to the top of the podium in the Hamilton Island Outrigger Cup 2011. We won the 42km changes race on the last day, a full team effort of 10 people, and training was what it was all about. Starting in January we began a technically and aerobically challenging program that lead us to our goal in Australia in June. After giving Kamini our training and racing schedule she provided us with a detailed weekly training program that was far beyond what many of us had ever experienced. There were daily workouts with very precise focus, and effort levels. Some workouts are even broken down into seconds and strokes. There was variety in the program and even a prioritizing of workouts. Kamini was readily accessible for answering our queries about the program. In the end we built aerobic and anaerobic capacities that we didn't know we possessed. The program was challenging so ultimately very satisfyling. We highly recommend investing in one of her training programs if you want to perform at your peak for a big paddling goal. Her training program was one of the absolute keys to our success." It is always the athlete that has to put in the dedication and passion. I am happy to be able to provide a framework for this commitment. Way to go Gals!! |
