Garb Photos: training for World Cup! by Will Richardson | Sep 2, 2006 | Whitewater | 0 comments September 2, 2006 By Stephen Wright Well, prelims are a day away and the excitement is building as the mighty Garburator wave just gets better and better. Wilderness Tours has been kind enough to host the entire first-ever World Cup’s first event this weekend. Paddlers have arrived from all over the world to train. The line-ups are long, even with night-lighting to allow paddling 24 hours a day! Enjoy a few photos from Friday–my last day of coaching with the Keeners. What a great summer, and what a great place to paddle! Live from Jen’s house in Beachburg, ON, Stephen Wright UPDATE: Prelims are done, and Team JK paddled well and went HUGE with several paddlers making the cut to semi finals and finals tomorrow: Men’s: Stephen Wright in 1st, EJ in 4th, Clay Wright and Jay Kincaid and Mario from Costa Rica all advance!
