YOUR FIRST WHITEWATER KAYAKING EXPERIENCE
Whether you're keen on kickstarting your kayaking career or unsure if kayaking is your thing - but you'd like to try it, we designed this half-day program to give you a fair idea of what whitewater kayaking entails.
We'll introduce you to the equipment and outfit the kayaks to suit your body dimensions. After that, the safety briefing will be quite extensive as there are many things we need to cover since you're new to the whitewater environment. Next, we'll teach you how to exit the upside-down kayak and a few basic strokes and techniques that will help keep your first whitewater kayaking descent in control and fun. Our goal is to build a solid core of skills that you'll be able to develop your progress on – and – to get you excited about kayaking!
We'll kayak a scenic 5-6km class I-II section, which will provide many opportunities to test your newly acquired skills.
Since this program aims to get you hooked on kayaking, we are keeping it at a promotional price.
