Ice Breaker 2024
Event information
Registrations for this event are closed.
The Ice Breaker for 2024-25 season was again at Kerrs Reach on the Avon River, with Straight line races. 500m first, and then 200m (two heats and then a final in each distance). Start for 200m is in front of Arawa Canoe Club. Finish is by the first pontoons in front of the Rowing Clubs. Racing finished with the 100m Backwards Race.
The (Lytellton) tide is quite late (12:24pm but it hits Kerrs Reach about an hour later). Teams arrived from 9 am, with the first race starting at 10 am. We used six Standard Boats, racing in 3 lanes. Teams included 20-paddler or 10-paddler.

Thanks to Waimak Attack and Waimak Vibes for Pack-in/set-up assistance for the event, and all those who helped in the pack-up. Especially for the help with trailer repairs, and getting our boats back to Training Venues.
