(2009) TEVA Mountain Games, Vail CO, Kayak

The 2009 Teva Mountain Games featured four kayaking events testing speed and agility, and competitors need a healthy dose of both to secure a spot on the podium.

The Pro Kayak Freestyle is far and away the most popular kayaking event, that routinely draws such kayaking luminaries as Eric Jackson as competitors. Thick crowds always flood the Vail Whitewater Park for this fan favorite competition. Plum Vail's Brooke Segerberg was on hand at the Freestyle to grab these shots.
