Pieces of the Puzzle

Performance not only requires having all of the pieces of the puzzle, but also putting all of the pieces into place at the right moment. In the semi final in Tacen I had the pieces but after hitting my stern in the top drop and almost missing the first upstream I was reminded that having the pieces counts for nothing if you cannot use them properly.

 

Now we are in Augsburg getting ready for the last world cup of the season and it feels like summer has left us and a good Chilliwack winter has replaced it. My week will be spent dialing in the quirks of the course here and trying to find a solution to my inconsistency of late. Right from the start the focus was on the world championships in September but now there isn’t much else left.

 

One stroke at a time!
