Hi, I'm Rich the owner of Taylored Outdoors
​
I'm a White Water SUP Coach with over three years of experience paddling rivers across the UK. During that time I've explored everything from classic white water runs to being part of teams completing first SUP descents on rivers in Scotland. In 2025, I joined an expedition to Nepal, paddling some of the world's most spectacular white water and gaining invaluable experience in big-water environments.
​
For the past year I've been coaching paddlesports throughout the Scottish Highlands, helping paddlers build confidence, develop technical skills, and progress safely on moving water. My passion is growing the White Water SUP community across the UK by giving people the knowledge, confidence, and skills to paddle rivers independently and enjoy everything the sport has to offer.
