Ray Kwong of Vancouver’s Team Storm attempts to use duct tape and zip ties to attach a GoPro digital recorder on to the arm of his team’s outrigger canoe Saturday while another boat approaches the start line in Newcastle Channel. The device stayed on for the hour-long race, but Team Storm finished last in its heat. The competition was part of Nanaimo Canoe and Kayak Club’s annual Crazy 8s outrigger canoe event, followed on Sunday by the NPI Attack, which features smaller outriggers. About 200 paddlers from B.C.’s south coast took part in the two-day event.
