Dear Canoe4Canada: Tub C-4 Order??

Would you take a different order if you were in a tub C4? For that, what are the typical characteristics of and what is required to excel in each position?

The characteristics that make a good tub C-4, well that is a great question. You've come to the right place, because all four members of Canoe4Canada are champions of the famous black Junior C-4 Trophy, and know what it takes to move the beast of a boat, commonly known as tub. In order to put together a great tub boat, you need to distribute the weight carefully, and have smooth paddlers at both ends, with a lot of power coming through the middle. Mark would definitely be suited for the second of third position, because of his immense power and size. Most likely you do end up with the same order, as Gab is great in the back and that kind of dictates the remaining spots.
