Whitewater Kayaking, Sea/Touring Kayaking



Sat 5 Feb 2022

Posted by Aaditya C on Thu, 27 Jan 2022
Leaders: Aaditya C, Anita T
Standard: Intermediate
Meeting: Tue, 1 Feb 2022, 7:00 pm


This is an internal kayaking training course that will be run together with ROC. The intent of this course is to train attendees to be able to organise and assist leading on flatwater kayaking trips, and to teach basic kayaking skills as part of an intro to kayaking trip. This is one of the requirements on the pathway to get ticked off as a leader. Some previous kayaking experience is required.

We will cover a number of topics including basic kayaking skills such as understanding the equipment, wet exits, paddle strokes and how to teach them, and some simple self and assisted recovery techniques, and rescue techniques.

Please note attendance at the trip meeting is mandatory in order to fit your gear. Do come along even if you’re on the waitlist, as some times spots free up last minute.

If you have any queries then please get in touch.

Location: Most probably Lysterfield lake

Cheers,

Aadi & Anita
