Meet the Business Owner

Andy C.

Business Owner

I started paddling under the instruction of Roger Paris in 1979 on Colorado’s Roaring Fork river. Because of Roger, I became interested in racing kayaks early on– an addiction I still can’t seem to shake. From 1984 to 1993 I spent much of my time training and racing wildwater kayaks with the U.S. Team. Paddling has taken me from South America to Africa, while introducing me to some of the wildest characters and closest friends one could have. These days, more of my water time is spent with my wife, Janet, and son Wiley, on dory floats on the Animas and multi-​day floats in the desert. We also enjoy stand-​up-​paddleboarding and family kayak runs together.

All of this adds to nearly 30 years of river running, with work directly in the Paddlesports industry since 1987– beginning with a start-​up paddle manufacturer and others, to my current job as owner of 4CRS. Running the store with a committed, experienced, enthusiastic staff of paddlers, and having such quality customers is a privilege.
