WHAT DO YOU NEED TO BRING?
Our intermediate course will focus on skills for Class II and III whitewater. At the intermediate level, we look to refine your existing skills to make your paddling smooth and effortless. We will also step up the difficulty of manouevres, and the rapids we practice in. By the end of the course you will have a solid knowledge base with which to continue your whitewater progression.
We can run a custom course for you! If you have a group interested in such a course, contact us.
