Esquif Canoes is very proud to announce its support of the 3rd Annual Reel Paddling Film Festival World Tour. Esquif has just resigned as the Best Canoeing Film Category Sponsor for the 75-city, America-wide film event tour.

“Resigning with the Rapid Media’s Reel Paddling Film Festival was a no-brainer,” says Esquif Sales Manager, Nikki Rekman. “The film festival is not just for core canoeists and kayakers but is also for their friends who enjoy the outdoors and are the next boat buyers.” The RFPP World Tour provides Esquif exposure in all corners of North America at grassroots and major paddling events. Also, say Rekman, “Sponsoring the Best Canoe Film supports the efforts of many of our key Esquif Canoe dealers, who host the touring festival.”

The Reel Paddling Film Festival World Tour brings the year’s best paddling films to audiences across North America and around the world. “In 2005, we set out to do for paddling what the Banff Mountain Film Festival has done for climbing,” says festival creator and director Scott MacGregor. “Presenting a wide range of amazing canoeing and kayaking films on the big screen in front of 16,000-plus outdoor enthusiasts supports and grows the passion to paddle.” Alongside Esquif’s best canoe film category the RPFF also features action, documentary, instructional and adventure films about sea kayaking, whitewater kayaking and kayak fishing.

To host the Reel Paddling Film Festival contact Russ Schroeder, RPFF Festival Coordinator, coordinator@rapidmedia.com.

Esquif has been manufacturing canoes for over 10 years in Frampton, Quebec and has grown to have dealers worldwide. Having entered the market as a whitewater canoe manufacturer Esquif is now making its mark in the lakewater and touring communities as well as with hunters and fisherman.
