I presume you can multiply time bonuses?

Trying to see what's the most you can get.

group costume -20   
best photo -10
brown claw-5  x3
paddle spin -10 x3
catch the eddie (-20)(-50)(-2min)
break out toss paddle and run the meat -30 x3

So a potential 4mins 45sec if every team member can do this?
Are we going to have some minus times on the day?

It won't really be a marker as such you just need to catch the eddy.....

however if you miss it you have to do 3 bootie beers.

Yea you can have minus times if you manage to pull everything off.

The paddle spin and brown claw moves have to be pull while going down jackson's so each paddler will only manage one of either of those 2

you if all toss your paddles and run the meat you probably won't have time for the brown claw or paddle spin

The energiser eddy one is aimed at getting in as many people as possible.

I.e. you will only get -20secs for one person going in individually. If your other paddlers enter the eddy on their own it won't count

you get -50secs for having 2 people in the eddy at one time
-2mins for having 3 people in the eddy at one time

my best guess is is that your team could hope for a perfect run of
group costume
best photo
brown claw/paddle toss or run meat and paddle toss or all catch energiser eddy

Ah I recon you could manage to spin your paddles in one hand while doing brown claw with the other.

If you were to catch the eddy and then break out and run the meat will that count for both?
