River Trip up to grade 3(4)

Spring midweek river paddling series

Trip going ahead, see What's App group for details.

No more rain forecast (from today Friday 4th) before event; so levels will be dropping. Subject to sufficient water levels the plan will be to run the Lower Kent with a focus on practicing boofing. This will mean repeating the best practice drops. Hopefully paddlers better at it than me will help out with hints and tips. Trip will be confirmed on Monday 7th around 5pm.

Midweek Series format: this event will only be opened up to book on on Friday 4th March
