Phantom Dragons paddler Luke Esbenson, certified last year to steer in the Colorado Dragon Boat Festival, got his first experience steering for teams in a major dragon boat event when he volunteered to help at the Arizona Dragon Boat Festival in Tempe, AZ on March 22-23,  Luke steered for 16 races over the course of the weekend (in addition to racing with his Phantom Dragons team), and did an outstanding job!

Shown below is Luke, steering for the CRAA team (with several other Phantom Dragons helping fill out the crew, and Tom Ging drumming).
