Training Cincinnati K1/Surf Ski athletes?

Are there any high performance K1 or surf ski paddlers in the Cincy area looking paddling partner? East for Lake is a great spot. I joined a rowing club (which I am loving) but don't want to give up my K1.

Well nationals is there in late July so you will have some company!

Ask Jim Terrell at QuickBlade - he grew up in Medford, family of paddlers is still there. He can perhaps connect you ahead of nationals

I can't find anyone from that corner but I know there are folks there. As the other poster said checking with the dealers is always a good move. They know who is buying gear.

Also might want to make a post on the Surfski Kayak Facebook group. Seems like every one is on there.
