Craz E skills at the Ottawa dragon boat races

I decided to go and cover the Dragon Boat Festival at Mooney's bay.  There was a lot of traffic, music and noise from all sides; but one announcer steered me toward where the real action was  happening .




This is the Craz E Crew.  It’s not just a catchy name, because these guys do completely insane stunts.




There tricks are off the wall!!!
 






Insane air and true showmanship.  I can’t even imagine how many years of practice it takes to perform these moves.
 
 

Some tricks I had never seen before,  like this full flip.   You really have to trust someone to have them do a 360 over your head.  



The intensity on his face shows the dedication to their sport. 




Clearing the competition above and beyond.
  I’m glad I had the opportunity to capture the Craz E Crew.  While I didn’t know they were appearing at the Dragon Boat Festival, I was lucky to catch the fine performance of these extreme athletes.  Check them out on their Web site at http://www.crazecrew.com/
