Back by popular demand "The Complete Paddler", a multi-day course created to promote proficiencies in all aspects of ocean kayaking that relate to safety and competency on and off the water. This is the most comprehensive course ever offered at Deep Cove. This course involves 20 sessions, 10 lessons on Mondays and 10 practices on Wednesdays.
A number of the common hazards that are found within the marine environment can quickly turn deadly if not handled in the correct manner. This course will give you the all the fundamental skills of sea kayaking and the tools to handle situations before they get out of hand.
All to often kayakers spend the bulk of their time and energy focusing their learning on the fundamental hard skills of paddling such as forward stroke or solo rescues and do not give much thought to the curtail soft skills such as decision making, communication, and navigation to name a few. This course was created to ensure participants are well rounded paddlers.
We have also noticed many paddlers don't have the opportunity to practice newly acquired skills before moving on to another new skill. In order to provide ample time for practice this course will include weekly practice sessions to solidify new skills as well as a Single Kayak Season Pass valued at $349. This course will challenge paddlers to become competent and confident paddlers that are aware of and able to manage the hazards of ocean kayaking. This year we are also offering the nationally recognized Paddle Canada Level 1 Skills Certification with this course. Space is limited! Sign up early!
