What We're All About
Our mission
To bring together the most daring and skilled whitewater paddlers to tackle Maine's wildest and most beautiful rivers.
Our vision
To build a community of river enthusiasts and create opportunities for people to connect through their shared interests in outdoor safety and recreation.
Our Community
Our races span the majestic Kennebec River Gorge, the picturesque Penobscot River, and the formidable Smalls Falls. Whether you're navigating Class III/IV rapids or pushing your limits on Class V, we promise an adrenaline-fueled adventure like no other.
But it’s not just about the races. It’s about the people who make it happen. Our dedicated team of organizers, volunteers, and sponsors work tirelessly to create unforgettable experiences on and off the water. We’re a community united by our love for the sport and the great outdoors.
