ACA ACA Announces Winner of Earth Day Clean Up Challenge
ACA - On behalf of the ACA, we would like to extend our thanks to all of those who participated in the 2016 ACA Earth Day Clean Up Challenge.
Jackson Kayak If Rivers Were Cheese The Point of View of a French Man.
Jackson Kayak - They come along together very well. Nothing better than a cheese sandwich to get you back on the horse between the two runs of the day. And when we go kayaking in France, we always buy the local cheese to give it a try. It's part of the weekend you spend on the road to go kayaking.
PaddleWoo No, You'Re Still Not on Your Tail
PaddleWoo - If you're wondering why the site is looking different this morning you're not alone.  I've gotten a few emails wondering.  I call it an un-theming.
SUP Magazine Mother's Day Gifts for SUP Moms
SUP Magazine - Leave your Mother's Day shopping woes behind, we've found a handful of gift options for the SUP-loving mom in your life. From SUP gear to SUP jewelry, SUP apparel and more, there's something here for every special SUP momma.
SUP Examiner Paddle Surf Warehouse – Costa Mesa, California
SUP Examiner - Tucked away on an industrial development in Costa Mesa, Paddle Surf Warehouse offers paddlers the opportunity to purchase boards from NSP, Surftech, 404, Bark, VESL, Red Paddle Co. and Guy Takayama and paddles from Quickblade and its store brand, VESL. Visitors to their location will not have to travel far to place their purchases on the water as the famed Newport Aquatics Center is only a short five minute drive away.
Eric Jackson Rock Star XS is here
Eric Jackson - Getting your kid a boat that fits them and raising your kid right may not always be part of the same conversation, but it can be. There are many factors in raising a kid to be responsible, happy adult. Raising happy kids with a high self esteem and who are willing to work at something to achieve it seems to be agreed on by most parents. I can't imagine raising my kids without the boats I made for them.
First Ascent Stookesberry and Korbulic Meet their Match on Myanmar's Irrwaddy
First Ascent - Chris Korbulic and I are lucky. At least that's what I think. Our job is to travel the world in search of a great paddling adventure.
Alpin Action Team Ace of Spade review
Alpin Action Team - My dear friend Miguel has just bought a brand new Ace of Spade. Once delivered, I couldn't help but test it! So I brought it with me on the Alpin Sprint, a classic III-IV run, perfect for a test.
Five 2 Nine Productions Kayak Films: Trends and Direction
Five 2 Nine Productions - I have a great amount of respect for Substantial Media House. I think Evan and Fred are both great guys, amazing paddlers, and fantastic behind the camera. They have done so much for the sport and media behind whitewater paddling for the last 5 years. They have developed a language all of their own that has permeated across the sport and defined the genre on to itself through the culture that has influenced so many young paddlers coming up and hoping to follow in their path. However, with all they have done for the whitewater media world that is positive, I also feel they have had a negative impact as well.
rvr2rvr Five Girls, Two Vans
rvr2rvr - We're five women traveling in two vans. Our plans are changing daily and our expectations are continuously challenged. It's a test of our patience and flexibility.
SUP Magazine Kai Lenny Downwind SUP Hydrofoil | The Future?
SUP Magazine - We've been hanging out with Kai Lenny this week on the north shore of Maui. After a Maliko Run, he took me aside and told me that he had something that would change downwind standup paddling forever. "In a year, all the top guys will be downwinding on hydrofoils," he said. "It's the fast way to downwind paddle." Bold claim, but who's more qualified than Lenny to make that call? Not many folks.
Canoe Kayak Paddle The White Nile Before It'S Gone
Canoe Kayak - For over ten years, I wanted to travel to the Nile. After hearing that the remaining section of the Nile was endangered by a new dam project, I knew it was time to book a ticket to Uganda.
SUP Connect Jess Leedy Gets Extreme in New Sup Surfing Edit
SUP Connect - Infinity and Werner Paddles team rider Jess Leedy goes completely insane somewhere in Central California pushing the limits of SUP surfing. In this seven-minute edit watch Jess take off on waves of consequence and get some epic barrels. There's also some pretty good wipeouts in there too so have a watch and enjoy the talent of Jess Leedy.
Exploring Elements REVIEW: Sea To Summit Big River Dry Bags
Exploring Elements - I recently embarked on my first extended multi day whitewater kayak trip, down the Grand Canyon of the Colorado in February. What this means is that I had to carry all the gear I'd need for the entire trip, in this case 12 days, in my personal kayak. For this type of trip there are only three main options that I've found, from my many years in the paddle sports industry, to trust in keeping your gear dry on the river; Seal Line, Watershed and Sea To Summit dry bags.
Starboard SUP Starboard Team Italy Wins in Rome
Starboard SUP - Congratulations to the entire Starboard Team Italy for winning Five 1st place finishes and Four 2nd place finishes in Rome during the first leg of the Italian Championship series.
