Are you planning a Northern whitewater river canoe trip and want to get some practice and coaching in beforehand? Our Northern River Running 2-Day course is the best way to refresh your paddling skills, improve your technique with coaching and feedback over the two days, and prepare for paddling more continuous, higher volume Northern Rivers.
Join us for a comprehensive day of whitewater canoe strokes, maneuvers and technique refinement with our certified expert instructors at Palmer Rapids, followed by a day-long river trip down the Lower Mad to put it all into practice in a river running setting.
On the river trip your guide will cover the strategies used for running rapids on northern rivers, safety and scouting, and build on the skills from day one on 10 new class 2-3 rapids. You’ll have the chance to experience as close as possible what it’s like to be on a guided trip, where you’ll be putting into practice the different river running techniques and skills from day 1.
Continued coaching, feedback, tips and tricks throughout the two days will have you leaving the course with a strong understanding of your current abilities and comfort zone, improved technique, new tips and tricks and a sense of confidence and comfort in your abilities – so you can leave your paddling worries behind and enjoy your big trip even more!
