Overview

This course is for experienced paddlers who want to get more enjoyment out of their paddling experience and increase the amount of control they have over their boat. This class will cover bow rudders, advanced stern rudders, low and high brace recovery strokes, low and high brace turns, side slips, and sculling draws. Emphasis will be placed on edging your boat while executing these strokes for maximum efficiency and boat movement. These strokes can be very useful while paddling in rock gardens, rougher conditions or just looking cool on the water.

Price: $85
Duration: 3.5 hours

Kayaks can be provided, however we recommend using your own boat to get the best feel for how these strokes work.
