Paddlers Awards 2019 – Jeremy Nash (U21 Men)

And the winner is in the U21 Men category: Jeremy Nash (Usa).
Chattooga river local, Jeremy has been on fire this year, pushing the envelope, whether on his home rivers in the Southeast, Wyoming, Oregon, Washington or California. His stoke and commitment to bringing things to the next level, as well as being the guy with the biggest smile out there, turned the judges’ votes in his favor.
