Jay Kincaid

Jay Kincaid has been paddling over half of his lifetime. As 2003 Freestyle Kayaking World Champion, 2001 U.S. National Champion and three-time U.S. Point Series Champion, Jay is the most proud of the many first descents he's done on rivers and waterfalls in his native Oregon and in California. When asked about his goals in kayaking, Jay said, "I want to simply be the absolute best that I can be. I feel that I was given a gift for kayaking, and in the end I want to know that I gave it my all never cheating myself or the sport."

When you hit Jay's web site you'll notice the moniker "All Day Jay" a fitting nickname for a guy focused on spending over 300 days a year training on the water. Jay will be following the water this summer and will be involved with Lotus paddling clinics in Kernville, Salida and at the Gauley. For more about Jay, check out his site: www.jaykincaid.com.
