Running water training in Sindhi 10.4
Running water training takes place with sea kayaks on the Sindi rapids and is a real treat for everyone who has attended our spring running water training and I would like to try even more dynamic water and learn to surf on standing waves. To participate in the training, it would be good if you are there with rowing supports, current entry, tilting and other vital rowing skills.
The content of the training is to develop running water reading, decision-making and practical skills, that the time spent on the water is safe and pleasant. At the weekend, take a step forward to be a more skilled and independent kayak rider who can handle up to 3 classes of waterfalls.
SKE has a boat, oar, vest, helmet, apron and dry suit. If you have your own equipment, we recommend that you bring it with you.
