Ben Edom has a lifetime of experience in kayak and canoe paddling, coaching and competition, including GB Sprint Team and a national championship win and 10 years of Ski paddling in Australia on Queesland’s Sunshine Coast and Sydney’s Northern Beaches. This breadth of experience, and often daily playing on those big Pacific swells, enables Ben to communication simple, clear key principles, valuable hints and subtle techniques, all personally tested with a serious amount of sea time.

Now back in training, and one of the team riders for STELLAR Surfskis UK, Ben has earned a string of podium places in 2018, 2019 and 2020 races, competing in the 2019 and 2022 World Championships. And, to bring his coaching skills right up to date in 2020 Benjamin qualified as a British Canoeing Race Coach.

“I love the sea and want to help anyone who embraces the thrills and challenges of wind and wave on a ski to be more effective and aware so you can enjoy every trip all the more. More speed and power, less effort – If that means you can beat me – all the better!”
