Whitewater Dojo July 6th
Learn tailies!
Service Description
This day is all about tailies! Let's get vertical in this focused day learning how to sink our stern and get our bow in the air. Our fleet of half slices are the perfect craft for learning this skill. If rivers levels allow we'll use features on the LaHave River. If the river is low we'll use an excellent tidal feature working this day that provides a great eddy line for us to work on. Training includes: - 1 day of instruction with Candlebox Kayaking's experienced, highly certified, expert instructors - High-quality equipment including kayaks by Jackson Kayak, paddles by Werner, drysuits by Kokatat (on a first come/first served basis), and all other necessary safety equipment - Photos from your time on the water - Experience on (up to) intermediate (class 2+) whitewater run on Nova Scotia's South Shore What people are saying: "I have had two days of intermediate white water training with Matt DeLong. Matt, thru a well thought out approach to each day, helped me take the next step and assisted me in comfortably engaging in new challenges. At the end of each day I left with a great sense of achievement and a deeper understanding of the workings of moving water. Having experienced Matt's dedication to helping every paddler achieve more control and comfort in one's own paddling skills I can do nothing other than "Very highly recommend" Matt's coaching. Thank you Matt." - Frank, TripAdvisor Course Duration: 1 Day. Start Time: 8:30 am. Location: LaHave River (if levels permit) or the Argyle River. Please book at least 48hrs in advance.
