Me - "hi yeah, my new paddles failed, snapped at the blade!" Werner - "can you tell us what kind of water you were on and how the blade broke?" Me - "umm, you're not going to believe this but.... we were on the Zambezi and we were racing with yoga balls" Werner - *click*
I have never seen that yoga balls game payed before. I think it has the makings of a really great professional sport. First, you have to be an absolutely excellent kayaker, but beyond that, there is a lot of strategy and tactics involved. It could have the same potential as football (soccer in the US), but on a field which is constantly moving. I would have loved to see an overhead drone shot of it. The Zam is a perfect river for it. I can think of a few others which are wide enough, and which have parts which you must keep the ball out of lest it be lost practically for ever. The game played here only scratches the surface of what could be done. If I had the connections and money, I'd start a professional league with actual teams. You'd have to be really flush with cash to start such a thing though. Great time! I hope to see this game played again someday.

Absolute chaos! Love it!
Not sure who won but I think you all did as that looked like fun. Always amazed at what you all can do. Thanks for letting us come along.
Attitude is everything! You are so tough and fun💪🏻
Full😂 fun guys
You should try canoe polo - I did notice some paddle fouls there eg 7:34 and 7:39 😉
That looked exhausting but such fun if you have the skill set level of 'excellent' kayaker
