Reel World Vol.10
RESULTS: PRO
We are delighted to announce the winners of Reel World Vol.10, organized by Kayak Session and NRS, for the pro category. As usual, this year brought a strong range of entries, from expeditions and big water to downriver freestyle and waterfalls. This year’s lineup showcased the many faces of modern kayaking and the different ways paddlers choose to tell their stories. As for the amateur category, we are so stoked to still see so many paddlers taking the time to capture and share the best moments from their year on the water.
The judging criteria included quality of footage, quality of editing, variety of locations, overall activity throughout the season, action, and level of paddling.
Without further ado, here are the results!
