Hey everyone! I've just discovered the Philly Canoe Club online and saw that racing and sprinting are a part of it.   What is the k1 sprint scene like in Philadelphia?   I've got an Epic v12 surfski that I use for longer distance racing, but would like to get more involved in sprinting if that's something you all do down in Philly.

yep...sprint

I'm looking at more k1 and surfski racing.   I was able to get in touch with Glen and it sounds like he's got some pretty sweet races organized.   looking forward to participating in them for sure!

sprint?

What is considered a sprint? the aluminum canoe sprints run in conjunction with the 70-mile General Clinton race are 12 miles.

A couple of surfskis raced in the 6.2 mile Woodbury Creek race yesterday. There's a short race coming up next weekend on the Cooper river, I think.

Glen Green is the PCC race guru. His email is chairman@swanboat.org
