Keith Wikle
I started paddling in 1997. I began coaching in 2003 and have earned certifications in Sea, Surf, and Canoeing through both the ACA and the BCU.
My current certifications are with the ACA as a Level 5 Advanced Open Water Sea Kayak Instructor.
I live in Kalamazoo and have chaired various sea kayak events including the Gales Storm Gathering and Wmcka. I have coached extensively in both the midwest. I have also competed in surf kayaking at the Santa Cruz Paddle Fest.
My passion is for moving water of any variety, but open water surfing is my favorite.
