Her knees are higher than I can remember seeing, but I haven’t seen much. Sort of matches her high angle paddling.
Wow! That Dame Lisa (Is that a royal bestowment upon Ms. Carrington per Kiwi government, or does that trace itself all the way back to the English royal palace? Or is Sinatra-speak at play here?) really rips the water! Like a Cheetah! Lithe, nimble, exquisite cornering and balance, all while possessing a body fat content less than 10%! A paddler with superb training and dieting regimen.
Still, off those closed circuit race courses, say out there in the offshore chop, and in the break to shore, I’m not sure I’d want to flail that surface with such fervor, lest the wounded seal visual and hydrosonic profile induce some apex predator to “converge” on my course. Suddenly Epic’s artistry in composites fabric and epoxy seems quite fragile, and this tenuous butt wriggler of the imbalance- beam bateau feels no edge to stymie the edginess.
But then, I’m but a simple canoodler, sometimes pushy rapidly cross lake in my Voyager with a hit’n switch of unpolished frothiness, but more often just trying to place a clean entry. With my 30% body fat (at least towards the con tower, so I’m told), stodgy platform, and hull silhouette (Toni. You can dig, right?), my enticements towards the predator kind are more likely to draw an overly ambitious, near-sighted eagle, down from 300 feet thinking it’s soared across a surface meandering wounded sturgeon. Let’s see where Tilley’s guarantee gets me with that one!
Man, I sure enjoy watchin’ you enjoy life upon the water, Sing. As always, thanks for sharing.

Foam pad, dial in footplate, stay low on remounts. Ivan Lawler vids help a ton. If you ever have kayak in japan, you’d have loved it. This love might have compiled you to choose a japanese love name, did it?
Always get a kick out of the poetic flourish with which you convey your observations on PNet. 
Me… just trying to find/make a bit of poetry on frothy waters.

Thanks. You are +1 on Lawler. I’ve started to watch his coaching series. Good stuff but sometimes challenging because I can’t always hear/understand what he is saying (I have tiny bit of hearing inpairment). I’ll see it through at least once.
