Introduction to flatwater kayaking

During this event, you'll learn the basics of flatwater kayaking!

Some of the things you will learn are:

• What sets flatwater kayaking apart from other paddle sports (boats/paddles used, technique et cetera).
• How to hold a paddle.
• Basic paddle technique.
• How to balance a kayak.
• What to do if you fall into the water.

Note that flatwater kayaks are tippier than rental kayaks. We will thus stay close to the club and do balance and other exercises. In other words, this event is NOT an excursion in the forest.

Please bring a dry set of clothes. If you want to take a shower after the event, please bring a towel.

Since this is our first event, it is offered for free, so we can figure out what works and what doesn't.
