Darryl Draycott
Darryl believes the most rewarding part of travelling and working in the outdoors is the “wow” moments. The moment where everything around you slows down. No matter your upbringing or country of origin, he believes a state of flow is universal and can help connect us. When Darryl’s not on the water whistling and paddling away, he can be found team building, climbing, or mountain biking. He is also a passionate gardener and animal lover who prefers to collect stories over photos. His passion for the outdoors has led him to experience many cultures and environments and he continues to be inspired by the people he meets from around the world. 

Julian Ganton
Life on the water comes naturally to Julian who was born and raised on the Toronto Island. He spent his youth riding island waves and learning it’s unique waterways. While studying abroad in Hawaii, Julian immediately connected with the surf and SUP culture there and became inspired to share his experiences with Toronto. He created Toronto Island SUP in hopes of reconnecting people with nature and showcasing it’s value. He believes a healthy lifestyle doesn’t begin and end on a personal level; it extends to looking out for our communities and respecting our planet. Julian continues to travel all over the world, pulling inspiration from other cultures to share through his practice.

Based on our conversation about the dynamics of your team, we will cater to your needs and create a space for cooperation, friendly competition, team building and most importantly, fun. 

We use a series of challenges to bring about conversation about team work, communication, listening, leadership and a variety of other soft skills. Along with interpersonal skills, this is also a great chance for us to talk about our relationship with the planet, such as water use, plastic pollution and climate change to name a few.
