After NZ nationals I attended two competitions in Australia, both in Penrith. The first one was Oceania open Champs and a training camp for other competitors that were, like me, representing their Islands. There were four of us representing Samoa. We had a competitor that did both canoe and kayak, myself doing kayak and the other two did canoe. There were the four Cook Island competitors, one from Guam, one from Tahiti and one from Palau. Most of them have a background in surf ski, vaka, out rigging and or waka ama. It was good to be part of this cool group of people.
A week later it was back to Penrith where I competed in the Australian Nationals in the under 23 category.
For me it was a mixed bag of results where I came home with a gold and a silver medal.
Robi gave me a week off and this week it was back into training.
Tech is going well although a lot of the other students probably think that I wag a lot.
Next month, which is tomorrow, I'll be training and going to tech and in May there are plans to be in Poznan and Duisburg. Hopefully by June there'll be news of what happens for me next.
