Dagger Kayak Announces Water Sports Events

Kayak manufacturer, Dagger has continued its sponsorship of whitewater competitions, multi-sport events and women’s/cause-specific initiatives for 2017.

“Dagger is committed to every type of paddler, from motivated beginners learning basic techniques to the world’s best kayakers searching for the cleanest lines through class V rapids,” said Evan Lyendecker, marketing director for Dagger. “We are proud to continue our support of women’s kayaking programs and inspirational causes and events that celebrate paddling and support the river community at large.”
