About

My journey with this started "back in the day" as a brand ambassador for some of the same companies we still work with today. In the years that followed university I was considered a "Pro kayaker", and I felt like I was "living the dream”, as I travelled the world to take part on exciting river expeditions, as well as guiding commercial river trips and competing in extreme kayak races and freestyle competitions.

The event that sparked the idea that eventually led to the conception of the Outdoor Agency occured one summer during our annual pilgramage to Norway. I was paddling with a friend who worked at a local Outdoor retailer, and he asked me if I could help him to get hold of some of the paddles that I was using, for his shop. So I spoke to the brand who at the time was one of my sponsor´s and worked out how to make that happen, and as they say the rest is history!

A lot has changed in the past 30 years with the equipment we use, and how we procure it. However, some things remain the same. If you can combine the best skills, knowledge and equipment it will not only produce the best results, but it will also give you the best experience! 

So if your looking for the best equipment, or you need help with your existing set up. Or your looking for representation for your brand in Scandinavia, feel free to reach out to us, we are always excited to talk, gear, industry and adventure!
