Stellar will have three sponsored paddlers for this years racing season.  Reid Hyle will be one of the USA paddlers.  Stellar is excited to have Reid on board. Reid is one of the most versatile paddlers in the USA and one of the fastest. Reid qualified for the International Canoe Federation Kayak (IFC) Marathon World Championships for four years, representing the USA.  Last year he  placed 18th at the US Surfski Championships with a time of 2:14:47 and came in second at the East Coast Surfski Championships by seconds.  In 2009 he place 10th at the Mayors Cup.  Reid has plans to race the Surfski Champs, East Coast Surfski Champs, Chicago Marathon and a few other races as his schedule allows. He will be paddling an SES.  When he’s not working as a fisheries biologist for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Reid Hyle is paddling furiously along the St. Johns River in Deland, Florida.  In the next few weeks Stellar will announce the other USA paddler and the international paddler.
