Day 2 of Training on the Wellerbrücke

After a cold night and no rain the levels continued to drop. At the start of the day it was at 199cm, by the end it was on 193cm. With the drop in level we decided to attack the full qualification course, starting above Champions Killer -1 and finishing at the Slalom Course get in.

Running into Champions Killer -1, slightly too far right saw me surfing the hole for a good 15 seconds.

Finally managed to dig deep and get out of the hole.

Rob's landing on Champions Killer
saw him looking into the sky.
The aerated landing makes it very hard to roll in.
Back in his boat Rob makes it through the tight gap
against the wall.
A fellow competitor snapped his paddle in Champions Killer -1
and still made it down into the pool of Champions Killer.

After lunch we continued to paddle the Qualification Course, dropping Champions Killer -1 5 times in total and paddling the lower section a further 4 times.
Tomorrow is the last day of free practice, so another early start is planned to get in as much paddle time as possible.
