We are The Belgian Rafting Women and are number one in Europe (Lipno 2012) and number six in the world (New Zealand 2013)!
Eurocup Durence
After a long night drive, we started our day with a full day training session and we tested all our new positions.
Friday was filled with sprints, battles and the downriver race of raft four
Results:
Sprint Raft 4: clear win
H2H Raft 4: lost by 16-hundredths of a second: good start, but we went up too high, made a nice come back but we were not able to win
Downriver Raft4: easy win. We were able to keep up with the men and finished after the whitewater rafting school
Sprint Raft 6: third place. By 1 second of Fl’eau and by half a second of Liquid Ladies: very tight!
H2H Raft 6: We beat the Liquid Ladies. We tightly lost to Fl’eau: we started faster, but unfortunately we could not keep up with them
Saturday: all slaloms!
Results
Raft 4: we passed all gates and touched only one: result: 1st place
Raft 6: poor 1st salom, at the 2nd run we passed 9 gates, missed one and touched a few! Tough slalom course, but we can say we displayed good rafting skills considering the entire new raft setup!
Sunday:
