Meet Tasha Hammer

Tasha's Ecotour at Lake Tahoe
Starting her SUP adventure in 2008, Tasha Hammer had one goal in mind--to build a fun, family-oriented Stand Up Paddle community.  "I was a lone paddler for several years.  Now, I am thrilled to see fellow friends and clients on the water SUP'ing.  There's nothing like paddling with a group of people to share this amazing experience with!"  Tasha had her sights on SUP'ing many of our local waterways & documented her fun trips via photo journal.  She was the first to Stand Up Paddling down the Mokelumne Hatchery run to Stillman Park.  She also paddle the Mokelumne River, launching from Lodi Lake to paddle upstream for miles to train for SUP races.  The first to SUP at Lake Hogan, Lake Camache, & Silver Lake. "I will never forget seeing the fisherman's faces and their zillion questions regarding SUP'ing."
 
As a pioneer, Tasha knew that Stand Up Paddling would be the next big sport due to it's versatility.  "You discover a fun way to workout the core and upper body without feeling like you are at a gym.  There's nothing like exploring our beautiful waters and reconnecting with nature again.  It brings out the kid in you, while taking in the special ecosystem in our area!"  Tasha continues to share her passion and cannot wait to see what the future will hold.  Her next goal is coordinate local races, continue to sell equipment, personal fitness train, and teach.
