U14 AOA Provincial Championships 2015

If you're not falling, you're not ski racing. A quote from Lindsey Vonn. This past Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday I was at the U14 AOA Provincial Championships. I went into the race with one goal and one goal only. My goal was to qualify for team Ontario for Can Ams. We had two slalom races and two GS races. Although conditions were tough I managed to get a 18th and a 15th in the slalom and a 19th and a DNF in the GS. Thanks to all the volunteers who helped out. I had an amazing time!

Second Race of The Season

Just finished my first GS race of the season. It was better than my last race. The first run was good and really turny. I finished the first run with a good time in 14th place. I made the top 30 flip. The second run was was a good course. I didn't do as well on my second run but I finished the race in 24th! Thanks to the Osler Race Crew! The link

The End Of The Sailing Season

Me And My Sister In Nova Scotia After The Canadians
10 placks, 5 flags, 2 glass opti sails, 1 hat, 5 trophies and 6 wins... Well I think it has been a good year. As I finish up the last regatta of the year with a win I look back on all my achievements this year. I was pleased to win the Cornish Hen at RHYC for the second year in a row.

I was honoured to have won all three of the Royal Hamilton Optimist Regatta this year.I would like to thank Royal Hamilton Yacht Club and its large fleet of volunteers for its continued commitment to dingy racing.





I feel that my biggest achievement this season was winning 4th overall and top Canadian at Cork International. Having just over 90 boats on the start line, and some very serious competitors from not only Canada but the USA, Bermuda and Mexico made for some tough competition and conditions.

I had three amazing coaches this year who helped me and supported me through out the whole season. Peter Ehvert, who is a skiff sailor and a very good sailor over all was one of my coaches. Maddi Lot who is anther sailor who used to sail skiff was another one of my coaches this year. My third coach was Clare Hall. She is from the UK and coached the National Squad in the UK. She has taught me a lot this year and I would like to thank her for all the hard work she has done to help me get where I am. I would like to thank all my coaches for their support over the past season.

Sliding into the sailing season

As the skiing season came into a halting stop it is of course time to start the sailing season.Again I am sailing the Opitimist Dinghy like last year and a bunch of years before. The season has already started and I am sailing with the Royal Canadian Yacht Club in their Rep Team. I have already been out on the water multiple times. The head coach for the single headed boats is Chris Waters. He will be coaching me a bit I think. My other coaches are Peter Evert (an amazing sailing who has won a couple Canadians and is a amazing skiff sailor), Maddi Lott (a 49er FX sailor and a great sailor in general) and Kai Groves (another great sailor who used to sail with my sister). Between all my coaches I think that I will have a amazing year. This weekend we have a RCYC race team clinic. Its great because it gives us a chance to meet up with the team and ABYC is there also there. Today(Saturday) We just did some training but tomorrow we are doing some racing and I can't wait.
