Aimee performed well at the Blue Lake 1 \u2013 the first national regatta of the season &#8211; claiming an impressive K1 200m and K1 500m double.<\/p><p>Also competing in both open women\u2019s K1 events is 2018 World K2 200m and K4 200m silver medallist Kayla Imrie (Mana) and rising talent Alicia Hoskin (Poverty Bay), who reached the World Championship K2 500m A final alongside Caitlin last year.<\/p><p>Another interesting entrant in the open women\u2019s races is 2014 World K1 1000m champion Teneale Hatton. The 30-year-old Aucklander took several years out of flatwater paddling to focus on surf ski racing but the London 2012 Olympian is a quality athlete and it will interesting to see how she performs on Lake Tikitapu this weekend.<\/p><p>The leading elite women will also be in team boat action across the course of the two-day competition.<\/p><p>A strong elite men\u2019s squad will also take to the water across two fascinating days of competition in Rotorua in which the main prizes on offer will be the open men\u2019s K1 200m and K1 1000m events.<\/p><p>At Blue Lake 1 in October, Kurtis Imrie (Mana) took the main honours claiming victory in the K1 500m and K1 1000m and he will once again be the man to beat over the classic distance.<\/p><p>His 2019 World Championships K2 1000m partner, Max Brown (Whanganui), was impaired by a sickness bug at Blue Lake 1 but he too will be a major factor.<\/p><p>National men\u2019s K1 1000m champion Zach Ferkins (see below) is another likely to be in the mix and watch out for his younger brother, Sam and fellow Poverty Bay paddler, who performed outstandingly well at Blue Lake 1 to place second in the K1 1000m behind Kurtis.<\/p><p>The third to fifth place finishers in the K1 1000m at Blue Lake 1 \u2013 Hamish Legarth (Hawkes Bay), Ashton Reiser (North Shore) and Ben Duffy (Arawa) &#8211; were separated by less than half-a-second and will also be a factor.<\/p><p>Also entered is a two-time World Championship representative in the K1 1000m Quaid Thompson (Poverty Bay), who should not be discounted.<\/p><p>Kurtis, Max, Hamish, Ashton, Ben and the Ferkins siblings will all likely contend in what is likely to prove a fast and furious open men\u2019s K1 200m, although the man to beat could be Taris Harker (Karapiro Kayak Racing Club). The former national men\u2019s squad paddler is a gifted performer over the 200m distance and he claimed an impressive victory by almost half-a-second from Ben Duffy at Blue Lake 1.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-32a6a29 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"32a6a29\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-26b1df4\" data-id=\"26b1df4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9676386 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9676386\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/DSC_0206-1024x651.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3698\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/DSC_0206-1024x651.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/DSC_0206-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/DSC_0206-768x488.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/DSC_0206-1536x976.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.uptest.co.nz\/canoeracing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/DSC_0206-2048x1301.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ce62406 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ce62406\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-732c589\" data-id=\"732c589\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e8857cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e8857cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Another intriguing race will be the men\u2019s K2 1000m final \u2013 a race in which New Zealand have qualified a boat for the Tokyo 2020 Games.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>CRNZ Technical Director Gordon Walker said: \u201cWe had some internal competition and racing in August, which was high pressure but this is the first time the paddlers will have faced competition pressure since the nationals.<\/p><p>\u201cThe K1 events are a good chance to see where the paddlers at are individually and to test a few things out, although from a selection point of view the regatta is not critical. However, I\u2019m sure the paddlers will put a lot of pressure on themselves to perform well. Hopefully, we\u2019ll see some good conditions and top-quality racing. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p>\u201cThe crew boat racing will also be interesting. The Blue Lake regatta will form the end of a week-long camp for the squad which began on Monday. We\u2019ve had two days of racing in the week with crews having their first opportunity to race together \u2013 most combinations having never raced before. We\u2019re looking forward to see how they go again this weekend in a pretty packed schedule. They\u2019re excited to race and have really embraced the learning opportunities competition creates.\u201d<\/p><p>Christchurch-based Para-canoeist Scott Martlew, the two-time World Championship KL2 200m medallist, will also be in crew boat action across the course of the weekend.<\/p><p>Besides the open men\u2019s and women\u2019s action, other divisions who will be performing over the two-day competition are: tyros, U14, U16, U18 and masters. There will also be a number of mixed races.
