Dane Jackson

As the son of Olympic paddler and Jackson Kayaks founder Eric Jackson, Dane Jackson has kayaking in his blood. The freestyle kayaker grew up traveling the U.S. in an RV with his family, getting homeschooled by his mother and chasing kayaking competitions with his father, where he proved to be a paddling prodigy. He is a three-time winner of the Whitewater Grand Prix and IFC Freestyle World Champion who has more than 80 first-place finishes in kayaking comps. He is the subject and director of Tenaya Creek Kayak Run (Mountainfilm 2019).
