Whitewater Kayaking Clinic I/II & II/III

Whitewater Kayaking Clinic I/II & II/III

Take your kayaking to the next level! For the on-water instruction, the class is divided into groups – Whitewater I/II and Whitewater II/III so you can learn with other students at your level.

Whitewater I/II – We’ll focus on catching eddies, making ferries with finesse, the brace, roll and making good decisions on the river. The goal is to make you a self-sufficient paddler ready to explore the river with friends at the same level.

Whitewater II/III – This group levels up the skills by learning to make Class 3 moves in Class 2. We’ll explore surfing, catching more challenging eddies and the all important – combat roll.
