King and Queen of
Ramp 2021 series.
It’s a wrap for the King and Queen of the Ramp W1 series for
2021!
Manukau Outrigger Canoe Club set up the W1 series to
challenge paddlers all over the motu to put their W1 paddling skills to the
test and race in one of the most iconic paddling spots in Auckland. ‘The Ramp’ at Ian Shaw Park, Mt
Wellington.
There were some great battles on the water, followed by
smiles at the finish line and finished off with delicious cups of hot soup and
noodles for all the competitors!
Over the course of the King and Queen of Ramp W1 series,
points were accumulated depending on how you finished in your division.
Congratulations to the 2021 King of the Ramp, Johno Smith from Akarana, and the 2021
Queen of the Ramp, Angela Hobson from
Orakei Water Sports.
Congratulations also to our junior division champions Isaiah Rapana and Mercy River Fariu from the Cook Islands Outrigger Canoe Club,
earning the titles of the Prince and Princess of the Ramp.
We’ll make presentations for the W1 Series at the end of the W6 series.
(Please see attached for points and refer to links on the wakaama website for full
