🥁 Drumming is integral to dragon boat racing. A skilled drummer sets the pace and lifts team morale, pushing every paddler to find that extra 1% 💪🏼

Back in Hualien, we asked Darrell and Zan about their experience drumming at the Club Crew World Championships.

So proud of our Senior Dragon Boat paddlers making the Australian National Team training squad! They head into Camp 2 this weekend. 🐉🇦🇺

And a huge respect to the other Ryders who trialed for the Australian Auroras Team. Your effort and dedication to the sport don’t go unnoticed. Let’s keep pushing forward together! 🚣‍♀️💪

Our Club Crew World Championships crew is still coming down from the high of Hualien, Taiwan.
What an amazing 6 days of racing! What a location! What a team and it looks like we may have caught the eye of a particular commentary team… Paddles Ready 🎙️👀
