Jared Seiler is a professional kayaker based out of the USA. If you been watching kayaking videos over the last few years you will have seen Jared in action many many times. I for one always look forward to the next edit release.
As one of the brains behind Demshitz, Jared has pretty high profile within the kayaking world. He also has a very busy schedule. To find out that Jared was prepared to take a little bit of time out to take part in the Unsponsored Q&A series made my day.
When and how did you first start paddling?
My dad got my brother and me into kayaking when we were 12 and 11 years old back in ’97 with the Philadelphia canoe club’s Novice training program. We learned at winter pool sessions and were running the lehigh and lower yough by the end of that summer. We spent many days on the lower yough. A year and half later we were on the upper yough, which is where we really honed our skills.
Chris Baer’s Nevado edit captures some great action.
Aeon Russo, Mark Taylor, and Chris Baer make their way down the quintessential Chilean steep creek Nevado.
We have some big plans for Unsponsored in 2016.
This first of these is the launch of a new Unsponsored newsletter. This will take the form of an email and will contain some great paddlesport related content including news, views, videos and reviews.
You can subscribe to the newsletter right now using the form below. We won’t be using your contact details for anything else or sharing them with anyone outside of Unsponsored HQ.
As a promotion for the launch we have started putting another goodie box together. Sign up to the new Unsponsored newsletter for your chance to win an Unsponsored goodie box (worth at least £50). A name will be selected at random on Sunday 31st January at 8pm (GMT).
The first batch of new Unsponsored stickers have arrived.
If you would like some (for FREE) simply sign up to the new newsletter using the form below.
Demand has been so high over 2000 stickers have now gone. We’ll be getting more made. In the meantime you can still sign up for our newsletter.
We all love to kayak, sure. It has some things we love and some we hate. First Aid often becomes the elephant in the room.
When was the last time you or your peers did a course or a workshop? Do you keep ‘up to speed’ on developments?
In this series I am pleased to offer a ‘dirty’ First Aid approach. This is suited to kayakers and river users. Using a ‘find it fix it’ approach to incident care and management.
This first article will lay the foundations of rapid emergency aid. It’s a simple approach that a basic personal First Aid kit and things carried on you can deal with. Now is not the time to discuss what you should or should not carry in your kit. Read the series and make your own mind up.

In addition to some great gear Steve Whetman has also been producing a number of videos. This one on the benefits of the HMS Karabiners is definitely worth a watch.
Jared is penning his responses to an Unsponsored Q&A as I type this. So call back to check it out. In the meantime here a great edit from Jared showing some action from 2015.
Old man river Darren Clarkson-King (DAZ) will be supplying a series of ‘Dirty First Aid’ articles for Unsponsored. The series of articles will be posted here over the next few months and will centre around first aid for river runners.
John Nestler is researching what impact the paddle has on the types of shoulder injuries kayakers have suffered and he needs your help.
Movie Monday 18 January 2016 may well be the best Movie Monday to date. Some simply epic work gathered in one place for the sole purpose of keeping you going through the early stages of being back at work for another week.
Enjoy!
