Although I am more of a creek boater, this is my favorite playboat by
far, loops huge, goes big on waves and is very well balanced.

"Well, Ladies I enjoy long walks on the beach with my true love. Romantic
moonlight nights in the mountains with my true love. Watching chick flicks with
my true love crying and eating a pint of ice cream. Taking my true love down
the tallest waterfall I can find. You
thought my true love was a girl? haha My one and only true love is my kayak.
You should have known that by now." Other things I like:
Sipping yerba mate with my best
friend and Huckfest Partner Jake Sakson either on the way to a sick day of big
mtn. skiing or kayaking, either way. Editing video when I am bored. It helps me be
creative.
Taking epic photos of a nice sunset.
Kayaking with people who are way better than me, it makes me push
myself.
Driving fast cars.
Jumping off tall stuff either in my kayak or on my skis.
Waking up to a warm day in Carbondale where the possibilities are
endless.
