Wesley’s Wild World of Kayaking w/ the Jackson Action Wagon (J.A.W.)

Well I hate I had to missed this event, but I had much more important business to take care of at the Ocoee this weekend…

News from LVM TV:

The Giant Slalom Race went off without a hitch on Saturday with 54 racers coming out to post their time. Chris Gragtsmans paddled well all day and came away with an overall first place finish. Every racer was stoked and we heard several people say this was the event of the season! Here are a few pictures and the results, and stay tuned for full coverage and video in a few days.

Special thanks to Woody Callaway and Liquidlogic for helping with the gates and giving us a place to register during the morning showers. Apologies for any spelling errors.
