Details:  We train, not just for ourselves, but to help othersthe people we paddle with. By learning rescue skills, you are preparing to support your team or paddling community during their most difficult moments on the water. It’s a powerful investment in your safety and in the safety of those around you.


Why it mattersevery paddling trip is a team effort, and when things go wrong, being prepared is key. Knowing how to act quickly and confidently in an emergency could make all the difference.

This interactive class will provide a hands-on opportunity to focus strictly on learning mechanical advantage systems.
