One look into Colin Field’s garage reveals many passions: bikes, skis, kayaks, skateboards, snowboards, SUPs, fly rods and all the gear that go with each. As a writer and photographer, Colin has been published in numerous publications, including Canoeroots and Adventure Kayak magazines. For the 2015 Paddling Buyer’s Guide he reports on the most ambitious SUP journey ever attempted. “Having recently completed my first overnight SUP trip, I was really interested in Bertish’s attempt to paddle the Atlantic—how is that even possible?” Find out on page 37.


Peter Holcombe is a professional photographer and ardent paddler. Currently he’s touring North America in a Winnebago with his wife and 10-year-old daughter with the aim to paddle as many rivers as possible. “SUPs provide a great platform for hauling overnight gear, and a wonderful river experience in the process,” he says. “I like the higher perspective standing allows—it’s a great platform to photograph from.” On page 36, Peter shares his secrets to making overnight SUP expeditions easy.


A self-taught, award-winning photographer, filmmaker and writer, Pete McBride has traveled on assignment to over 60 countries for publications like Outside, Esquire and National Geographic. Six years ago he followed the Colorado River from source to sea by boat, then by foot. “Back then, when we reached the water’s end, we walked— nearly 100 miles through cracked, chapped desert. It was one of the hardest, harshest walks of my life,” says McBride. On page 38 he chases a flood that connects the famed river to the sea for the first time in nearly two decades.
