Description

Join us to learn and refine some of the most used paddle stroke and maneuvers!

About

Our Kayak Paddle Stroke & Safety Primer is a fast-paced training course offering the paddler the opportunity to learn and refine some of the most used paddle strokes and maneuvers.
Some of the strokes we will work on are: low brace, forward stroke refinement, reverse stroke, forward and reverse sweep, stern rudder, and sculling draw. In addition we will also go over the most used rescues: assisted T-rescue, and cowboy/cowgirl self-rescue and paddle float self-rescue.

Included

We are happy to provide you with a kayak (paddle and PFD included) to use during your class free of charge. This is particularly beneficial when you are just starting out and are still trying to figure out which kayak is right for you. If you already own a kayak it is advisable to learn and get used to your own kayak. However, we may require you to use one of our kayaks if we consider yours to be unsafe or inappropriate for the class.

What to Bring

  • Dress according to the weather (bring extra layers in cold weather)
  • For any of our rescue classes participants are asked to dress for complete immersion
  • Drinking Water
  • Sun protection (e.g., hats, sunglasses, sunscreen, long sleeves)
