Today, Team Backbone is undaunted by the prospect of on-water action. Our team knows what is needed to take care of each other and draw in new kayaktivists whether expert kayakers of those getting their paddle wet for the first time. Our leap in capacity feels freaking miraculous. And yet, it all seems a very natural outcome, flowing out of our shared journey.

Momentum is now ours and Kayaktivism is on the rise. It is being used to force removal of derelict dams, to resist pipelines and liquefied natural gas terminals and even to pressure billionaires to divest from fossil fuel. Now is the time for a great pivot toward a world that sustains us all in body and spirit, one that honors our sacred obligation to deliver something beautiful to future generations. Kayaktivism is an important tool for making that pivot. 

Paddles ready? Forward, together!
