Volume 3 - Directional Control: Quit fighting the effects of wind,
current and waves and learn how to make your boat go exactly where you
want, when you want. World-renowned author and instructor Nigel Foster
gives you multiple layers of techniques, blends one with another and
highlights why certain techniques work better than others depending on
the conditions. "Directional Control" will teach you the secrets of
paddling in a straight line or turning with ease regardless of wind
direction. Regardless of your skill level, this is a must have DVD which
is loaded with essential information that will help you become an
efficient and safe paddler.
Volume 4 - Rescues: Aside from the obvious benefits, confidence based on sound principles and practice aids your ability to rescue yourself and others. Mastering rescues will improve your safety margin and extend your ability to enjoy the sport. "Rescues" by world-renowned author and instructor Nigel Foster offers both mental and technical solutions. Learn how to empty a kayak at sea, how to re-enter your own kayak from the water and how to take charge of a rescue until the swimmer is safely back in their boat. A range of different techniques is covered with expert guidance as to how to decide which method is best for each situation.
Before i took Kelly's class, I was convinced that a sit-inside kayak was a FLOATING COFFIN (don't mean to be so morbid). But now with what I learned in the Intro to Kayak class I feel CONFIDENT in a sit-inside kayak and my opinion has DRAMATICALY CHANGED. Looking forward to more days on the water. Thanks Kelly.
I was excited to take the pool class, even though a few friends ridiculed taking a kayak class ("What's so hard about kayaking?!"). The whitewater clinic presented challenges I was not expecting (physically, mentally or emotionally), and it heightened my awareness of the river, the sport, challenges and myself. It has taken me a week to process this experience, and I welcome the time it will take to continue to process both the instruction and personal learned experience. This course was positively intense!
