David,

Under crude aleutian "technology" that apparent lead of one yak over the other means utterly nothing. Totally groundless results. Too many variables make the foundation for that data as soft as a floridian everglade. Perhaps one paddler weighs more than the other... perhaps one has a higher fat to muscle ratio than the other.... perhaps one paddler has a different muscle fiber ratio than the other [fast twitch versus slow twitch muscle..big difference]. Maybe one kayaker has to fart and cant paddle right all cramped up. Are both yaks of equal balance? To what accuracy?

Pete :)
