Ken has clearly become one of the most influential whitewater paddlers in the world, and was recognized so by Paddler Magazine as one of their “Paddlers of the Century.” He continues to develop industry-leading instructional tools, and is a contributing editor to a wide variety of outdoor/paddlesports magazines. Ken teaches clinics across North America, as well as with Kayak Futaleufu, running kayak trips in Chile. In 1994, Ken’s competitiveness broke through the surface as he began frequenting and winning, freestyle competitions across the continent. Three years later, in 1997, he reached his ultimate goal by winning the World Freestyle Kayaking Championships. Winning the World’s was a major turning point in Ken’s life, as shortly afterwards he made the decision to develop a career within the whitewater industry that he loved so much.
