This is the 4X-sped-up video of the Buffalo Bayou Regatta kayak and canoe race March 7, 2009. I do not know the standings yet as they are usually pretty slow to post anything past third place. I am hoping for the top ten in my class (men’s rec kayak - long) but we’ll see. I will post the results here when they are ready.

My actual time was about 2:25(ish). After editing, the original video is about 2:11 and this version is 8 minutes and something. I used the GoPro Wide action camera mounted on my deck to capture the video. The quality is not fantastic because I compressed it so you wouldn’t have to wait forever to download it.

Enjoy.

Thanks to Ryan for going to the race with me and to Nathan for letting Ryan use his boat. You can see Ryan in the red Perception Carolina and brown hat buzzing around me throughout the video. He did awesome, especially for his second time in that yak. Also, of course, thanks to Lead Optimize Outsourced Marketing for sponsoring me.

I also want to give props to Bruce for the 2008 Buffalo Bayou Regatta video. He was there this year but didn’t bring his camera. Here’s his video.

The Buffalo Bayou Partnership is a good group and has been organizing the BB Regatta every year for 37 years or so. See you there next year.
