Moscow, Id – NRS has added to its lineup of top athletes by joining forces with Nikki Gregg. One of the world’s most high-profile and hardest working female standup paddlers, Gregg will represent the NRS lineup of paddling apparel and accessories to the SUP market.
“Nikki’s a versatile paddler who spans all aspects of standup, from surf to fitness to river running. She’ll be a great addition to Team NRS,†says Mark Deming, NRS Marketing & Communications. “She also fits the mold of what we look for in an ambassador, which means that she’s an awesome person in addition to being an elite athlete.â€
Along with being named among the top five female standup paddlers of 2012 by SUP Magazine, Gregg has been called the “queen of SUP Fitness†and “standup paddle’s spokeswoman.†A certified stand up paddle master instructor, she travels year-round from her Hood River, Oregon home to teach clinics, compete, create media and just have fun.
“I feel like I’ve just been adopted into an amazing family,†says Gregg.â€The people behind the NRS brand are truly supportive and I couldn’t be happier. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to work with NRS to help design technical wear for SUP, from surf to river, and I am truly humbled to be among such a talented group of athletes.”
