Seven hardy Paddlefish attended Space Coast Dragon Boat Camp From April 12-19. The boat was a mix of Pittsburgh, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Canada. A very nice group but we missed our P’fish regulars.
As usual, Jim Farintosh was well organized. Our Coach, Chris Edwards, proved to be exactly what we wanted and needed this year. With eyes in the back of his head, he let nothing slip by. Reaching and rotating! Pushing through the stroke. Finding the power with the push off the exit, and a slow, steady, rotation to the catch. Everyone in our boat gained insight and an improved stroke. It is hard to believe that someone so young has so much knowledge and coaching know how!
We offer you a vicarious look at our wonderful time. And start planning for next year!
