Paddle 365’s (run by Jamie Greenhalgh) moderate white water skills booster course is focussed on helping people build the skills and confidence they need in order to become strong and adaptable grade 3 white water kayakers.
Here I write about how the course went and what I learnt.
Since I started out on my adventuring journey, especially with my Canoe Club, we’ve always talked about there being 3 types of fun. Before the summer, most of my kayaking definitely sat in type 2 fun. I was shit scared whilst it was happening, sometimes in tears. But as soon as I got off, I’d have the biggest, beaming smile on my face. Here we walk through the three types of fun.
The White Water Leader training is a compulsory part of the British Canoeing White Water Leader qualification. It’s typically 2 days of training which covers the leader syllabus. The official description can be found on the British Canoeing White Water Leader pages.
