Intro to river paddling 1

Hi Cat, yea that's no problem. I believe its the Machno for you to take as the other kit is being borrowed tomorrow. Also if you could let John Speakman know when ever you collect/reserve kit. makes it a bit easier to keep track of things. -

Intro to river paddling 1

Hi Cat. You would be a 7.6 for a mamba and would fit a small or a med burn but would likely be better in a med. The club has some med burn 2s you can try for size if you like. Alternatively I would suggest chatting to the guys at https://www.roho.co.uk. They’re excellent to deal with and frighteningly knowledgable about all things water! I believe they do a discount for LCC members as well. -

Be covid aware Official trip The final session, let's take a moment... By now we should all be well enough aquatinted with the bow of our boats to never have to gaze longingly into it again. Our impressions of the Duracell bunny will be purely for humour rather than defacto. To make super sure though, session 4 will be a consolidation of what we've learned over the last 3 weeks. Challenges will be offered for the bold but just a cool river trip for the content. Hopefully all attendees have enjoyed the course and look forward to paddling in the future. Sessi

Be covid aware Official trip Its all about the edge! Session 3 will cover using river features to help us get where we need to go. We'll examine the tactics employed to manage our groups safely and to hit those swish looking lines ( also what a line is ). Sessions will be limited to 6 paddlers because of Covid restrictions but don't be disheartened if the R.S.V.P limit has been reached. Send us a message on 07927199545 and with enough interest we will be able to assign additional coaches to take another group or 2. Equipment is available for hire if required. If you

This time we are going to take a look at power generation 'finesse not fury'.

untilWhite Water Safety & Rescue Day part 1 An essential tool to have in your river paddling kit, is an increased awareness of safety issues. If you paddle rivers at any level of ability, it is HIGHLY recommended that you should take part in this course. It should raise your awareness of what to do and when you do it, in the event of a capsize. It could save your life or that of someone you paddle with. mediate difference between losing kit or not. LOCATION. Devils bridge on the Lune LA6 2JR Time form 10:00 to 13:00. With the doom, gloom and gnarly spelling mist
