(And What It Isn’t)

If you’ve ever struggled to find paddling partners, missed out on a trip or event because you didn’t hear about it in time, or spent too much time scrolling through random group chats looking for beta, RallyCrew was built for you.

At its core, RallyCrew is about making the paddling community feel smaller, more connected, and easier to navigate. It’s not another social media platform. It’s not a mess of outdated forums. And it’s definitely not just for Class V crushers. It’s a tool designed to help paddlers get on the water more, meet great people, and spend less time sorting through the chaos.

What RallyCrew Is

A place to find paddling friends—whether you need a road trip buddy, a local lap partner, or a crew for your dream multi-day.
A hub for discovering races, clinics, guided tours, club trips, pool sessions, and more—so you never miss out.
A personal paddling log—where you can track rivers run, miles paddled, and memories made.
A space for affinity groups—where you can connect with people who paddle like you, whether by craft, location, skill level, or shared interests.
A giant online eddy—where you can swap beta, geek out over gear, and stay in the loop without wading through social media noise.
An effort to make the paddling community feel smaller, in the best way—where it’s easier to find the people, events, and connections that keep you stoked.

Deborah Kane, RallyCrew’s Founder, and Ben Morton, Chair of RallyCrew’s Insurance Team, are all smiles on the Cal Salmon.

What RallyCrew Isn’t

A costly platform—RallyCrew is free. No paywalls, no hidden fees, and no “premium membership required” nonsense. This isn’t about making money—it’s about making the community more connected.
A replacement for in-person paddling—this is a tool to get paddlers on the water more, not to keep them glued to a screen.
A chaotic mess of group chats and lost event links—where you have to endlessly scroll and dig for info. Everything is searchable, filterable, and actually useful.
A bro-heavy, extreme-only space—where only Class V paddlers feel welcome. Whether you love steep creeks or mellow floats, you belong on RallyCrew.
A sales pit disguised as a community—where brands push ads in your face. Yes, businesses are here, but they’re adding value, not just hawking gear.
Another social media platform—where algorithms decide what you see. This is built for paddlers, by paddlers, to bring the community together—not to sell your attention.

Be the First to Test RallyCrew

RallyCrew is launching soon, but before the full rollout, we want to make sure everything is dialed. That’s where beta testers come in.

Think of it like getting your hands on a prototype boat before it hits the market. You get early access, but there might still be a few things to tweak before it’s ready for the full send. In the next few weeks, about 100 paddlers will get a first look at RallyCrew to help smooth out any rough edges before launch.

Who Makes a Great Beta Tester?

Someone who isn’t afraid of a little chaos
Someone who loves paddling
Someone who is willing to click around, try things out, and share honest feedback

No tech background required—just curiosity and a willingness to help shape something awesome.
