Henri Schoeman is a beast in the water,
he must be training in the endless pool with Lionel. Also Flora Duffy and Johnny Brownlee should get bike handling tips from sanders if they wanna get on the podium this year. Also on a less serious note, this race was brilliant, i'm all up for more technical courses like this. Finally just wanted to comment that Katie Z and Flora D were riding disk brakes and crashed while braking, whats that with the braking superiority of disk brakes?
FIFY to separate out the true from the absurd, just for other readers. :) While Henri is indeed quite fast in the water, i highly doubt his speed is from an EP. Speed in the water almost always comes from hard intervals in the pool. Further, i just can not believe how many references to Sanders have occurred in this thread (i.e., many others besides you) when the guy was not even in the race.
In any case, i thought it was very cool that Schoeman took a 30 sec lead over Mola coming out of the water, and made it stick for a 6 sec win. First OOTW and first OV at the end, very nice!!!
