Dragonboat Blog | The Dragonboating Resource

dragonboat talk for dragonboaters.

It’s amazing what media can do and what it offers to a community. So why shouldn’t dragonboating like any other sports have live TV coverage and be played on prime time TV? Well a couple of guys by the names of Brent Gardner and Bob Singerman have just done that. This time instead of waiting for the TV channel to come onto a station near you, you get to watch the channel on the Internet. It is the most effective way to broadcast a message and get the information to the dragonboat community quickly!

So in January 2007, The Dragon Boat Channel was launched and has been extremely successful in providing videos and coverage of live events, product reviews and lots of other interesting topics relating to dragonboating. As the company is based in Tampa, Florida US the coverage is mainly on events hosted in the USA. Never the less, it is a great website to check out and hopefully over the coming years it will expand globally to other countries in the world.

This is the first entry into the Dragonglobe Blog. The purpose of this blog is to record the growth and changes in the sport of Dragonboating. Furthermore I am running this blog alongside the Dragonboating Equipment business called DBV.

My name is Tyrone Shum and I am the founder of the business. I started DBV back in 2005 to help the dragonboat community find good quality equipment and have a one stop shop to purchase the equipment. Our business has continued to show strong growth each year and it shows that Dragonboating is a growing sport as well.

I am very proud to see DBV expand over the years and I especially enjoy receiving feedback from our clients when they achieve great results with our equipment at races. We have many exciting plans for the business in the near future and I hope we can continue to grow and help more people.

Stay tuned to this blog for more info!
