A whirlwind primer on Greenland’s National Kayaking Championships—past, present, and (very likely) Nuuk 2026. Fresh from Delmarva, Dubside breaks down the events (races, rolling, ropes, harpoon), the divisions, how scoring works, and what it actually feels like to compete. He shares travel/lodging realities, costs, gear options (including Qajaq USA fleet ideas), and why “attitude over ability” is the only qualifier that matters. Along the way: stories from the beach in Qaqortoq, a lesson in patience from judging days, Nate Apgar’s mid-start mindset shift, and why the whole thing ultimately exists “for the kids.” If you’re curious about joining Team Qajaq USA—or cheering from home—this is your roadmap. #QUSANUUK2026
