Take a break from the cold rivers and join us indoors to do some rolling in a heated pool!

I hope everyone has been getting some river time with our monthly trips. If you're looking to learn how to roll or just want some extra practice, come join us on Friday at Victoria University pool for a rolling session. The pool session is supported by the club and MU Sport so pool hire is free!

Knowing how to roll yourself back up after being capsized is important in white water kayaking. It not only saves times but more importantly, it significantly reduces safety risk. Some kayaking trips later in the year will only open to those who are able to roll.

During the rolling session, we will be self-teaching and helping your partner but hopefully we can get people of various experiences so that we can make the most of it.

I will conduct a video session in the club rooms after so that we can see and improve upon our rolls.

My car is out of commission so trip numbers will depend on the number of cars available.

Everyone is welcomed but you must be able to swim.

Trip meeting will be on the Tuesday night before. My email is if you have any questions or just use the chat feature on teamapp.
