2024 World Sprint Championship - Elite and Club events wrapped up on Friday, August 23 in Hilo, Hawaii to close the 20th IVF Championships and the 3rd time the event was held in Hawaii. Here are the Full Results!

Congratulations to all the paddlers who joined USAORCA whether V1 or crew, plus ohana and friends who came to cheer us on. USAORCA had a great showing at this event for only our 2nd International Sprint since organizing as a single mainland organization.

From the Racer's Perspective

Hilo 2024 Race Photos

IVF USAORCA Photo Album

Throughout the week of Racing, the voice of John Herbert could be heard over the PA system announcing and calling races like a horse race! Among his many talents was to capture photos of the members participating and provided a link to his USA ORCA Album via Facebook.

Use the link above, USA ORCA's FB page or International Va'a Federation FB page for more photos and video clips!

Add your photos to USA Outrigger Racing's FB page or tag us on Instagram @usaorca. Mahalo to our junior paddler and medalist, Charlotte Nurok @charlotte_paddles for keeping you informed during the race week!
