| BACKGROUND
________________________________________________________________
Tzak was introduced to paddling at the end of '06. After learning the basics he moved on into surf and eventually into whitewater which is where he found his real passion lay. After a fairly sustained season in 2007 he solidified his whitewater skills under the wing of fellow paddler Dave Worthy. Competing in the 2008 Murray White Water Festival he placed 7th and also received the Upcoming Talent award.
With his sights set on travel that could take him anywhere from the Franklin River (Tasmania) to the Buller, Tekapo and Waitaki (NZ), to the San Juan and Colorado Rivers (USA) and even the rivers of British Columbia (Canada). Hopefully he will keep the camera rolling......
“We have just had news from Tzak who is currently in New Zealand and living his dream in the whitewater mecca of Murchison in the South Island. Keep posted for photos soon.”
