Get to Know Me
My name is Harry Freeland, the visionary behind HFreeland.com. Beginning with a basic watch holder crafted from old wood found in my father's workshop, along with three magnets on the base. HFreeland.com is evolving into the go-to website for paddlers seeking essentials to enhance their racing and training experience. My journey from a simple holder to a hub for paddling equipment showcases my commitment to improving the available accessories for all paddlers.

Background
My commitment is also reflected in my paddling career. I started my kayaking journey at the age of 10 and gradually progressed through the local marathon and sprint divisions. With a vision of racing on the international stage and representing Great Britain, I nurtured this aspiration from an early age. By the time I finished juniors, I had become a multiple-time national champion across various disciplines and represented Great Britain eight times. This included two international medals at the Marathon European Championships and the Sprint World Championships.
