Ooh, very happy that I learnt how to cox a dragonboat last night. And I didn't do too badly on my first attempt! Well actually that was my second attempt.
My first attempt was during training nine years ago when I was still in junior college. Then, I lost my balance and fell into the water very ignominously. Embarrassing. After that, I never attempted coxing again until last night at practice.
So anyway, just happy that I've learnt something new and can say that I can cox a dragonboat! Although of course I still need lots of practice!

I think I was pretty good at it! haha.. but I have a really painful experience from it.. once the rudder snagged a fishing line, and although everyone stopped paddling, the boat was still moving quite fast when I lifted up the rudder to try to remove the line with my hands.. the line cut really deep into my fingers, and I was screaming in pain from the added saltwater!
