Pre-regatta Racing

Mahalo to Csaba for sending some shots of the mixed and women's crews at the Ka Mo`i race on April 5.

Practice Schedules

Long distance practice. Pre-season distance paddlers are practicing Tuesday and Thursday from 5:45 pm. The first pre-season long distance race was Saturday, March 29, and the season continues with a race almost every Saturday until regatta season starts. We encourage our paddlers, especially new paddlers, to participate in these races.

Youth Program. Regular regatta practice for our youth paddlers started March 31. Practice is Monday through Friday from 4 pm to 5:30 pm.

New Paddlers. Coach Bill is working with our new paddlers (Novice Bs) on Mondays and Wednesdays at 5:30 pm, and Saturdays at 9 am. If you or your friends are interested in learning to paddle outrigger canoe, check our page for new paddlers or just come down to the site on a scheduled Novice B practice date and meet with Coach Bill.

Regatta Practice We started regatta practice on March 31. Currently, Novice B, Golden Master and Junior Master paddlers are practicing Monday and Wednesday evenings from 5:45 pm. Open crew and Novice A paddlers are practicing Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:45 pm.

Shinnyo-en. Members of Shinnyo-en Hawai‘i are practicing with Wayne Monday and Wednesday evenings from 5:45 pm.

 

Recruiting. We're always looking for new paddlers. We need more members in order to be competitive at the highest levels and we want to introduce more people to our sport. We'd particularly like to enroll more youth paddlers. If you can help with recruiting, please contact Elizabeth at recruit@lokahicanoeclub.org

We have a flyer for adults and one for youth. We appreciate your help in posting the one that is most appropriate for your venue. Mahalo.

Waiver Forms. Please note that HCRA's insurance program requires us to complete waiver forms both for insurance coverage and race registration. These forms run annually from April 1 to March 31, overlapping the calendar year. If you completed a waiver early in the year, you may need to do another one for the current insurance year. This form is separate from the waiver that accompanies our club application form.

2008-2009 HCRA Adult Waiver and HCRA Minor Waiver forms, which will be effective from April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009, are also available.

If you have not paddled before and you want to give it a try, check our page for new paddlers. For more information you can either contact a Lōkahi rep at 954-1287 or send an email to Wayne. Before you get in a Lōkahi canoe you must be able to swim or otherwise handle yourself in the ocean. At a minimum, you should be able to stay afloat indefinitely in moderately rough ocean conditions with no artificial aids and without panicking.
