ur Rescues and Recoveries: Entrapment & Moving Water class is designed for kayakers who want to gain confidence in their ability to take care of others in a moving water environment. We will spend the beginning portion of our class working on a toolkit to rescue entrapped/unresponsive kayakers, or kayakers without a roll who can be brought upright without a wet exit. We will then transition into Canoe Pass where we will practice within the currents and wave action of a dynamic environment. There will be ample opportunity for practice and feedback on this class.

  • Unresponsive paddler rescue
