We are at Hammertown Lake here in Jackson, OH. This is Brynleigh's first time being in a whitewater kayak, and she loved every second of it. It is a huge step up from her Sun Dolphin sit-on-top.

We went over some differences in the way the kayaks paddle differently, wet exits, some hip snaps, and learning to be comfortable upside down under water. Most importantly, She had a TON of fun and never got discouraged.

Brynleigh is 7 years old, and has been kayaking with me since she was 3. Over the past year, she has went from riding on my boat to what you see now. I couldn't be more proud of her. She will be better than me in no time, not that it would take much lol.

last weekend Brynleigh told me she wanted a whitewater kayak, so I took a road trip and picked up Brynleigh a ‪@jacksonkayakvids‬ Zen 3 from ‪@HighwaterHobbies‬. If you have never met Don or been to his shop, check him out. It's an awesome place and he is super knowledgable and does care to help you out. https://www.highwaterhobbies.com
