A little about Jade:
I commenced Surf Ski Paddling in 2020, when I wanted to trysomething new during the WA Covid Lockdown.
I had been asuccessfull Stand Up Paddler and always thought at the race events that the Surf Ski looked fast and fun.
Since my first month, Epic Kayaks WA asked if I would like to jointheir team and promote the newly designed boat V9.
It has been a crazy year, half of it paddling in different types ofevents from Ocean Marathons, Sprint Championships and Adventure Racing, to more recently White Water paddling.
All of this made possible through being a Team Rider with EpicKayaks WA and coach Andrew Crothers.
