Shane Benedict, co-founder of Liquid Logic Kayaks, is one of the most confident paddlers that I know, and in this conversation he shares how he cultivated that confidence, and has sustained it for 40+ years on the water.
He also talks about his passion for designing kayaks, and what part of the design and development process feels most uncomfortable, and most satisfying.
Shane shares the strategies he uses to stay present in the moment, and the importance of keeping kayaking fun, and resisting the pressure to constantly progress.
There are many gems in this conversation, including strategies for keeping your body injury-free, the impact of female mentors on Shane’s paddling, and how he approaches breaking down hard whitewater.
