A LOVE OF WATER

It begins with a shared love of the water. Water is a substance that makes up two thirds of our bodies, that covers 70 percent of the earth’s surface, and that is vital to our survival. It also happens to create an epic playground.

A CHALLENGE OF A LIFETIME

Making a difference with such vast natural resource seems like an enormous task. We believe that numerous little actions equal big results. Also, crossing such a vast stretch of open water is no simple matter. Whether sailing, kiting, or kayaking, it is a voyage to be treated with respect.

PRESERVING THE LAKES

The lakes are under threat. Oil pipelines of questionable integrity, invasive species, sewage leakage, pharmaceutical pollution and agricultural runoff, the list of threats to these majestic and vital bodies of water is endless.

We are surfers, paddlers, kayakers, fisherman, and sailors. We love our lakes – the great ones and the small ones – and the opportunity to make such a significant journey across one of them thrills us.

On a Stand-Up Paddleboard, it’s even harder. Almost every muscle is engaged: the feet, legs, and core for balance; the back and arms for power. Put simply this is the challenge of a lifetime, both physically and mentally.

So we’re putting our efforts to good use. We’ll be raising money to help advocate and educate. We’d love it if you could donate to our cause!
