Dan Crandall – owner/founder/instructor
Dan has been kayaking since 1989, when he jumped into a Dancer and a roll class, followed by surf kayaking the next day and the Santa Cruz Surf festival two weeks later. Six months later he was an ACA certified whitewater instructor, and running a kayak school. He started Current Adventures 5 years later, and has been engrossed in all aspects of the sport ever since. Dan still teaches most of our Kayak Roll clinics, Surf Kayaking and Eppies Training classes. Dan has been a continuous member of the US Surf Kayak Team since 1991, is two time National Surf Kayak Champion and a 2005 World Surf Kayak Champion.
