Reply with quote | #1 | I read your ideas in collabration through paddle sport, it was so interesting for me. I wish I could talk with you and see a man from the other side of the world who thinks like me.
I hope to see you soon in Iran and if you like paddle with us on the rivers which are so beautiful that you think you are in heaven. Three weeks ago I was in China for 5th asian wild water and slalom competition. I saw the most beautiful palce that I have ever seen in Zhagjiajie, there I found nice friends who I cant never forget ,the year before I was in south Korea and there was a similar situation too.
Yes Chris... good people ... fair play... is always the winner at the end . I am living in Esfahan , it is a an ancient city which attract many tourists , and there is aproverb which means Esfahan is half of the world!!! I have master in physical education and I am kayak coach too , I dont have too much experiance in wild water because it is 2 years that I began paddeling in wild water as the first woman in Iran.
Because of the difference between physiological structure of women and men there was this carzy idea that women can't sit in canoe. Now it's time to consider the improving the technology of making canoe and the sit which can be make in a way that be suitable for women there is no reason that women can't work in canoe. If they can have a chance to try it they can show their ability!
See our beutiful Country and team...

Reply with quote | #5 | To both of you from Iran and Lebanon, we are very excited to hear that Chris is organizing the efforts to bring a few of your kids to our Junior Olympics in July 1-15 (in the minimum) to Colorado. For this I extend a big hand of welcome. Both Chris and I have a world view of life. Paddling together allows us to forget differences and to become great friends.
I will be working on plans to assure that the kids who come from your countries will not only be welcome but will establish a working relationship with any number of our kids here and in Canada.
Dave Kurtz, Chairman of 2007 Junior Olympics |
