Sea Kayaking 212 - Tidal Rapids Training in Deception Pass

Playing in tidal rapids is one of the few ways sea kayakers have to practice their bracing and other rough water boat handling skills in a setting where the degree of challenge can be controlled (start when the current is weak, quit when it gets too strong). This training course will put you on the fast track to being able to handle all types of rough water situations more safely. You'll be amazed at how much your skills and confidence will improve in just one day. Most students who've completed our overnight Training Trip or Five Day Training Camp are eligible for this course.

In addition to practicing the techniques for dealing with eddy lines, boils, and whirlpools, this course covers ways to read moving water, evaluate and avoid hazards, a review of bracing strokes, ferrying, and much more.
Classes are limited to four students, so sign up early to avoid disappointment.
