Lemmy Lambert is the co-builder and designer of the Va’a Factory V1 and V6 in Tahiti. An accomplished paddler himself, Lemmy and his team, Taaroa Dubois, Roland Teahui, Steeve Teihotaata and Heialanin Vairaaroa won the Te Aito, Super Aito 2009 V1 races, they also manufactured the V6 for Top Tahitian Team OPT, who won the 3 day 2009 Hawaiki Nui Va’a race.

Lemmy was just recently in Australia as coach of a V1 Clinic organized by Erica Hamp, Tracy Horan, the South Queensland Zone AOCRA Committee and Mark Kennedy (Va’a Factory Franchisee in Aust ZuluSurf http://www.zulusurf.net/vaa.html) I had the pleasure of spending time with Lemmy at the 2 day Clinic and filming him demonstrating basic V1 Technique. The video above is part of that Clinic.

Thanks for posting this.
How might that technique change in an OC-6?
