Aniol Serrasolses - Redefining the Whitewater Playground

Our roots stem from a group of whitewater kayakers who were not happy with the level of innovation and safety in the sport. They decided to take matters into their own hands. Innovation is at the center of everything Sweet Protection stands for, and one of our key motivations for pushing the status quo is to collaborate with the world's best athletes in their respective sports. Therefore, we are beyond proud to work with one of the most innovative whitewater kayakers in the world - Aniol Serrasolses.


Aniol Serrasolses is a professional kayaker known for his daring expeditions and exceptional skills on the water. Born in Catalonia, Spain, Aniol has been paddling since a young age and has become one of the most recognized names in the world of whitewater kayaking.

Career Highlights

Aniol has pushed the limits of kayaking with his daring descents and remarkable performances in competitions around the world. Some of his notable achievements include:

  • First descent of the Stikine River's Site Zed section.

  • Descents of the Grand Canyon of the Stikine and the Tsangpo Gorge in Tibet.

  • Exploratory trips to remote rivers in the Himalayas, the Andes, and beyond.

  • Completing multiple first descents in Chile, including the Aniol's Style section of the Rio Claro.

  • Numerous podium finishes in prestigious competitions such as the Whitewater Grand Prix and the GoPro Mountain Games.
