The 2018 Beginner Whitewater Course starts March 4th and during the course we always show this video to our students. This year instead of just having a classroom viewing we have teamed up with Kent Ford and Performance Video to offer this free showing of
The Kayak Roll (part I) to not only our students, but to the whole membership!
The Kayak Roll demonstrates and explains a smooth and effortless roll.Crystal clear underwater footage, animation and explanations make this a video you don't want to miss!The presenters in the video include Kent Ford, Mary and Phil DeRiemer, and Dan Crandal - all fantastic instructors. "If you are going to buy/watch one roll video, this is the one I'd recommend. Kent Ford takes you step by step through what you need to learn a reliable, effortless sweep roll, the roll of choice."
