COVID-19 has forced people to get creative, even athletes. When the virus canceled the 2020 Freestyle Kayaking National Championship, they decided to host it virtually. This is [Bennett Smith](https://www.instagram.com/bennettrsmith/), a U.S. freestyle kayaking team member. The main event in this video can be described as a gymnastics routine in the water, performing stunts and skills with a kayak. Normally, the competition is held on whitewater, but this time, each participant used a flatwater lake and submitted a one-minute video of their routines to be reviewed by judges. Watch as Bennett performs smooth flips and spins using his kayak and paddle to propel himself through his routine!
