Outrigger Canoe
In Hawaiian tradition each canoe is a living entity, with it’s own spiritual power or mana. We entrust our lives to our canoes and we treat them with respect. Our Outrigger Canoes, are specifically designed for distance paddling and navigating the open sea. These canoes are equipped with an outrigger for added stability, making them ideal for enduring the challenges of ocean waters. This discipline allows paddlers to immerse themselves in a time-honored maritime tradition, experiencing the vastness of the sea with each stroke.
Marathon Canoe
Focused on endurance, our Marathon Canoeing events feature long-distance and ultramarathon races primarily on rivers. Our team competes in various canoe types, ranging from traditional heavy aluminum canoes to light and tippy proboats, each chosen to optimize performance and speed. This discipline tests paddler stamina and technique over extended distances, offering both competitive races and the pure enjoyment of river exploration.
Dragon Boat
Our team proudly partakes in Dragon Boat racing, a sport with ancient Chinese origins that emphasizes teamwork and synchronization. With our members recently representing the US internationally, and as part of the TeamUSA Dragon Boat, we compete in ornately decorated boats, powered by teams of 20 paddlers. This vibrant and rhythmic racing experience is not only a competitive endeavor but also a dynamic cultural celebration.
