First Paddle on the 2023 ICF Canoe Ocean Racing World Championships Course - 18 October, 2023

Hey crew. For those of you fortunate enough to be coming to Perth for the World's and WA Race Week you'll be happy to know the wind has been blowing and the runs have been lining up. Here's some footage I shot last Wednesday which will give you a good insight into the ICF World's Course including the start beach in Fremantle, the conditions as you make your way up the coast past many of Perth's best beaches, and the finish beach at Scarborough. Shot in 4K with my new GoPro Hero 11 Black, I hope you enjoy the cruise........DAZ 🤙

Legend, going to get tight at the Mole

🤙 I was chatting with one of the crew setting the race course after I posted this video. He is going to set the turn buoy further out to give paddlers a direct line of sight back to Scarborough, so we should go past the mole a fair bit further out James.

Thanks so much for this. Without giving away all your secrets, I wonder if you could post a Strava map or some overlay to show what this line looks like?

Hi Denise. No worries. Happy for you to check out my Strava direct if that helps. Search 'Darryl Khng' 👍

Looks like it might be a little different to Portugal last year.

I wasn't there, but from what I heard....................yes, a little different 😉
