Shownotes

This is the story of Nouria Newman, the incredible French whitewater kayaker.  She is one of the best kayakers in the world and we were able to have this interview just a few days after she made history in Ecuador and rode a 100-foot waterfall descent. 

In this episode, we discuss with the Red Bull sponsored-athlete:

- Love at first kayak sight at the age of 4

- Why she left the competitive world and focuses on extreme kayaking

- Her fear factor and how that keeps her coming back to the sport

- How she almost drowned in her 200+ mile solo kayaking trip in Northern India and the lessons learned

- The significance of her tattoo: "Always Remember the Most Important Thing"

Please enjoy this episode with the phenomenal Nouria Newman. - Yinh
