NFC XI - WHAT AN INCREDIBLE REUNION, AND WHAT A TESTAMENT TO THE LEVEL OF KAYAKING !!
It was unbelievable to watch the sport yet again get pushed right before our eyes, and it was wild to have the energy come back bigger and better than ever!!
We started this race to showcase the level of kayaking, but the NFC is more than an elite competition, it has become a family reunion that spans all corners of the Earth. The depth and passion of this whitewater community is truly incredible 💜.
We can’t wait to show you what the talented has been creating since the last Norwegian candle went out! HUGE shoutout to our insanely talented media crew!
A massive thank you goes out to the Smiths Ferry community for opening their home to our sport, and to the dedicated sponsors and donors who keep this beast rolling; we simply could not do it without you. Just as importantly, we want to thank everyone who spent their energy to build, prep, and activate every piece of this event. You know who you are, we love you, and we appreciate you more than you know.
The NFC is beyond excited about coming back as a non-profit organization ensuring that the race’s fierce legacy and the protection of the free-flowing rivers are safeguarded for the future 🙏.
We are SO STOKED the North Fork Championship is officially back, and the countdown is already on for NFC XII June 8-10th, 2027 !!
SO MUCH LOVE ❤️ !!
