AROCA 10k Series – Waitakere Event 21 July 2012

Waitakere was proud to be able to run the latest event on the AROCA 10k series from its home base in Te Atatu, the first time in 15 years a race has been held at this venue. Teams and paddlers had the experience of paddling in new waters in the Upper Waitemata Harbour.

Conditions picked up during the morning and by the time of the men’s W6 race the teams were able to practice their surfing abilities. It was good to see some Worlds crews come along to enjoy a bit of longer distance paddling and to support their local series, much appreciated. Congratulations to Akarana Maioha in the women’s and Pineula in the men’s for taking out the W6 wins, with Shannon Moon and Jenny Tonkin taking out the W1s. Da Boys were the junior men’s winners, Azonto the junior mixed and Taniwha Tigers showed their enthusiasm winning the novice event. A great morning’s racing, thanks to all for your support.
