River Kayaking - The Next Step

The Next Step course is designed to help paddlers take their skills to the next level.  The course starts out on Friday evening at Bowness park making sure everyone is on the same page, and working on the kayak roll.  Next it’s out to the Ghost Dam with a strong focus on refining the moving water skills you already posses as well as developing new safety and rescue techniques. Sunday is all about safe river running. On either the Highwood or the Red Deer River we work on group management, eddie hopping, scouting rapids, setting safety and other techniques to get you safely down a river without an instructor by your side. Everyone also gets the opportunity to challenge themselves with the option to run a Class III rapid on the Sunday river run. Small group sizes and experienced instructors allow flexability in the course ensuring that individual needs are met on top of delivering the skills you need to expand your paddling horizons.
