CANOE AND KAYAK
SAFETY AND RESCUE CLINIC
Although safety and rescue are introduced
in our other on water clinics it takes
coaching and practice to develop a reliable
array of techniques. This session is
designed to provide concentrated time on
demonstrations and practice of various
appropriate self and assisted rescues
techniques for both canoe and kayak. We also provide insight into
mixed craft canoe-kayak rescues since there can be an array of
both craft in any typical group outing. We cover safety equipment,
clothing, rescue protocol (role of the rescuer and those being
rescued) and weather concerns. Paddle float re-entry, wet exits
and 2 craft assisted rescue are some of the techniques covered.
