Georgia on the weekend
Today was a beautiful day unusual for Tasmania ( just joking tasweigens)
and we were up for the surprise race. We all met at 12 back at the river a
few of the competitors a little sore headed but ready to hit the water.It
was to be... 'The classic ball race' where in pairs you had to get a swiss
ball down the river with wait for it... a mass start which was right above
a double stage drop with a hole at the bottom. Myself and John watched in
horror the carnage unfold. The mass start was awesome. The first drop was
a narrow slot that not 16 boats could fit through at once.Aaron got stuck
in the hydraulic of the second drop after rolling above it and going
backwards and I could see the look of fear in his eyes as he tried to
avoid having his head smashed in by boofing boats coming towards him.
Luckily Daring Dan last years winner boofed him out of the there but sadly
enough Dan was held in up side down for a long period with many boats
boofing onto him and finally he swam out. Poor Dan. After a tiresome run
getting the ball down through the canyon Niki and Tanya did great again
and came in 2nd place. Go you girls! A sensational weekend at the Teva Lea
Extreme Race. Thanks to Teva, Solution Spraycovers and our hosts the crazy
Tasmanians.
