Our Grade 2/3 White Water Skills Courses can range from bespoke single or half day lessons, 2 or 3 day courses or full on 5 day trips and intensive progression courses. All of these intermediate courses are aimed at solidifying core skills to help paddlers use them to build consistency in more challenging white water up to grade 3.

​

Throughout this course we'll work with you to develop your abilities in the 5 Elements of Whitewater Kayaking:

• Boat control

• Reading whitewater

• Controlling momentum

• River Safety

• Mindset

 

Throughout these courses we can work through the PaddleUK Personal Performance Awards to help structure your development. We can look at completing the Whitewater Award or make a start on the Progressive White Water Award.

 

​

What level of paddler is this aimed at? 

The semi-experienced grade 2/3 whitewater paddler looking at becoming consistent and stylish at that grade, and looking to develop the ability function as an independent part of a team, without needing to be led down every rapid.  Participants on this course should have the core skills necessary to be very comfortable in the grade 2 whitewater environment, and to be able to look at paddling grade 3 rapids. Being consistently able to do a whitewater roll is not essential, but you should be some way on the road toward this.
