Brands & Gear

Trusted Equipment. Field-Tested by Experience.

As a professional kayak instructor, I’ve paddled in some of the most demanding environments on the planet. From remote expedition settings to world-class clinics, I rely on high-performance equipment that holds up to real-world use — and I bring that same level of scrutiny to the brands I represent.

This page is your gateway to the paddle sports gear I trust, teach with, and proudly represent across Canada as their trusted Canadian Sales Manager.

Why These Brands?

The brands I work with are more than manufacturers, they’re innovators and partners in progression. Every product I represent has been personally tested, taught with, and integrated into the instructional experiences I lead worldwide.

These aren’t catalog picks — they’re field-vetted tools that support paddlers, retailers, and the growing community of water-bound explorers across Canada and beyond.

Field-Tested, Instructor Approved

Every item you see here is gear I’ve trusted in real teaching scenarios — on oceans, rivers, and remote expeditions. When I recommend a product, it’s because I’ve put it to work myself. That connection between field experience and gear expertise is what sets this sales relationship apart.
