What is an Orca Kayaker…

This means you are an accomplished sea kayaker. You are confident and competent but recognize you have room to improve and grow as a kayaker. You may be well accomplished in one style of kayaking (say Touring) but a complete novice in another (for example Kayak Surfing). You can be hardcore or totally relaxed; it kind of depends on who you are paddling with. You likely have a lot of gear but are willing to get more, especially specialty gear as you progress your skills and experiences. You likely are a good teacher, but are also an avid student. You love inviting new people into “your” sport. You love sharing your joy of adventure and getting into the wild/nature. Your skills, knowledge and experience is valuable and you are hungry for more, especially with others like you, family or friends. You are “all-in” with the sport and love the adventure of travel, even to remote and picturesque locations.
