If you are ready to learn the ultimate capsize-recovery - the kayaker's roll - we are ready to share in this wet and challenging endeavor. Having a solid roll in your arsenal is not only fun, but it is a critical skill to have when paddling in surf, on rivers, and in white-water conditions.
During this series of one-hour classes, you will receive one-on-one attention as you practice the individual skills necessary to perform C to C, sweep, Pawletta, and extended paddle rolls. You will never forget your sense of accomplishment (as well as the wet grin on your face) the first time you successfully maneuver your first roll.
