H2O Performance Paddles is offering a prize of $500 and a brand new paddle to the designer who can come up with a logo for their new line of whitewater products.
Ben Marr is a team ambassador for H2O and he’s giving the contest lots of attention on his personal Facebook page, as well as running the social media campaign for H2O.
“Kayakers often find themselves in situations where gear failure can totally change their situation,” Marr posted to Facebook earlier this week. “My goal with H2O is to not only help produce a high quality paddle that people feel confident using, but work on the aesthetics and style.”
The contest is running until March 31, and three entries have been submitted since it opened on February 1, says Shillion Mongru, the sales and marketing manager at H2O.
“We have a long and loyal fan base,” Mongru says. “We are in the process of re-engineering our whitewater line and wanted to give our paddlers a chance to be part of the process.”
The winning design will be selected by H2O’s staff team and will eventually brand the blades of every whitewater paddle the company offers.
