I am the creator of this website in part of a great paddling friend of mine that was lost to this crazy sport of whitewater kayaking. She taught me many things about kayaking and how to live life. She was most often seen and known for her pink helmet but she was often seen in a pink boat, a pink shorty and/or a variation of pink as the main theme of her gear. She said it was so no one would borrow her gear but I think we all knew, she just wanted everyone to know she was a badass out there styling the feminine side of the sport. Kayaking is often times scary and one that is dominated by men. Anyone who knows me, knows I believe a woman is capable of doing anything that a man is capable of doing. This is another kayaking blog but this time, through the eyes of females.

I started as a raft guide River in Pennsylvania a few days after I finished high school in 1984. I stayed on Class III water with a shaky roll for many years. I finally started to push myself about the time I met my husband.  We kayaked as much as we could for many years while still holding down day jobs and moving all around the world. Even though my husband now only boats occasionally, kayaking is still a big part of my life.  I hope to continue to boat for many years to come.
