What were you doing when you were 12-years old? Probably not paddling across the 32-mile Kaiwi channel, right? Rigg Napolean was the youngest of a new breed of watermen, including Connor Baxter & Zane Schweitzer who are taking up the sport in their teens (or twelves). Could this be the next Laird Hamilton? No, probably the first Riggs Napolean. Always seeming to have a smile on his face, Riggs made it across in 7-hours, 10-minutes and 30-seconds. We wonder what he’ll be doing when he’s 13.
