Nouria Newman – Why Kayaking?

Nouria Newman, kayak phenom from France, is one of the most complete athletes in the whitewater kayaking community.
She is one of the leaders of female whitewater kayaking and she does the best job showing women the way out there.
With world level wins in many disciplines, and descents of some of the hardest rapids in the world, she does better than most of the men out there. She explains in this video why she loves kayaking.
 » Sometimes people ask me: « why did I choose kayaking ? ». Most of the time they don’t really know what kayaking is and I’m struggling to give them an answer although I know it is really simple. So this is kayaking and this is why I love it so much ! ».
