Intermediate Kayak Clinic

 

Event Dates: 

05/01/2020 – 05/02/2020

Price: $85.00

Location: Nantahala Area

Intermediate clinics are targeted at those who have experience and are comfortable on whitewater, know eddy turns and peel outs and are proficient on class 2-3 rivers.  Kayakers and C1 paddlers at this level have a reliable whitewater roll and can help rescue others on class 2-3 rivers.  The format of intermediate clinics varies a bit.  On the first day, some classes may spend time on flatwater reinforcing skills, while other classes may head straight to a Class II-III river.  The second day of the clinic is typically spent on a Class II-III river.  Intermediate clinics work to strengthen fundamental skills such as forward strokes, sweeps, draws, prys, eddy turns and peels outs.  In addition, intermediate clinics often start the introduction of advanced and compound strokes and maneuvers such as bow draws into forward strokes, basic surfing, use of rocks, and other fun stuff.  Intermediate clinic students should have quite a bit of experience and be comfortable on rivers like the Lower Haw below 2,500 cfs, the Nantahala, or Pigeon Gorge.
