The reason for my stoke

My name is Tucker Troutman. I am 11 years old and I love kayaking. I started kayaking when i was three years old. Since then Kayaking has been such a journey for me. My dream is to become the best kayaker I can be. My grandpa is Eric Jackson, the founder of Jackson kayak. His son is Dane Jackson, my uncle. I encourage everyone to try kayaking because it is my favorite thing in this world. I encourage everyone to follow their dreams because if you work hard they will be accomplished.

The reason I love kayaking is how fun it is to me from surfing to river running. The reason i encourage kayaking is because I want people to feel the same joy when I kayak. The excitement of kayaking is such a blast for me. This summer I learned to loop, space Godzilla and cartwheel. Every trick I learn I add another goal. I want to share my journey with everyone here and I want everyone to chase their goals as well.
