We have finished the first week of training and everyone seems pretty settled in. The first few days were quite a treat as the numbers on the course were still quite low. By the end of the week however the sessions were running at capacity and it was crowded. I only got hit in the head by another boat once though so I guess it wasn't all that bad.
Our day off was centered around an epic trip to Manly Beach in Sydney. I have never seen the beach so crowded but we found ourselves a nice little spot and enjoyed the time in the sun and surf. Ben especially enjoyed the topless sunbathers. We capped the day off with a Sushi dinner (nothing beats BC sushi) and faced a tough ride home through traffic.
More and more internationals are arriving daily and I am looking forward to seeing the "competition" in action.
As for me, I am really noticing the new technique that I have been working on the past twelve months starting to become automatic. The environment here is very good for comparative analysis and I know this course very well. For these reasons the changes in technique have been very evident and while learning will always come with frustration, I am really happy with where things are going.

Could you tell about your new technique? What are the main keypoints?
Also very interesting to know about your training process.
