00:00 As our way of saying goodbye to 2023,

00:02 let's say hello to another new adventure.

00:05 Two of the very active Sparkle artists

00:08 will be joining us for the Outdoor Challenge.

00:10 It's performer-vlogger Mika Salamanca

00:14 versus actress Jake Texon

00:16 in our first ever amazing canoe race.

00:19 This is Kayak Kuyan.

00:22 Hello, Kuyan Don!

00:25 I'm used to dramas, but today, I'm going to do an action scene.

00:29 Sorry, I left my microphone because I changed it.

00:34 Hi, Mika. Hi, Jake.

00:37 Hello, Ku.

00:38 This is how you handle or hold a paddle of kayak.

00:42 First of all, get the center.

00:44 Balancing it on your head.

00:46 Then, hold it like this.

00:48 Then, form a 90-degree angle.

00:50 It's like a box.

00:52 Then, when you paddle,

00:53 don't bend forward.

00:55 There.

00:56 So, slowly,

00:58 it rotates.

00:59 Our challengers are used to it.

01:02 And when we come back, they'll be ready for the race.

01:05 Go!

01:06 Mika and Jade are just warming up.

01:12 The lap will start later.

01:13 Welcome to the first ever Amazing Earth Kayak Race.

01:16 Their goal is to reach the flag first.

01:20 Are you ready?

01:24 Ready!

01:25 Get set.

01:26 Go!

01:27 [whistle blows]

01:28 They're racing here in Tallac.

01:45 I'll just kiss you when you fall.

01:48 I hope you don't fall.

01:49 [screams]

01:50 [laughs]

01:52 I thought I was going to fall.

01:55 In an area of 244 square kilometers,

01:58 this is the third largest lake in the country.

02:01 It's inside the Taal Volcano.

02:04 There.

02:06 They're in the middle.

02:08 Mika is leading.

02:11 Eyes on the side, guys.

02:14 50 meters to go.

02:18 [screams]

02:21 I'm going to fall!

02:24 Is it possible for Mika to catch up?

02:27 10 meters to go.

02:29 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

02:34 There.

02:35 They're ahead.

02:36 Yeah!

02:41 My back really hurts.

02:45 And my core muscles are really working.

02:47 But I really thought about winning.

02:50 And after this,

02:52 you'll be able to do it.

02:54 You're a strong, independent woman.

02:56 Like that.

02:57 [screams]

02:59 I was so happy when I reached the finish line.

03:02 It was the first time we were able to do it.

03:04 Even though I lost, I still enjoyed it.

03:09 Congratulations to our winner, Mika Salamang.

03:13 A beautiful race in a beautiful country.
