Sea Kayak - Feb Training

 Sunday morning sea kayak training session - 'Warmup on Port Erin Beach'

 The Discover group used the sheltered inner bay to practice manoeuvring and experiment with balence and control. Conditions further out were ideal for small groups of the Improver's and Improver plus students, to venture in on small forays, then returning to the shelter before pushing out further the next trip.

 Chris Allix is continuing his training, in and out the kayaks working steadily towards his long term goal of paddling from the Isle of Man to Monaco.

 Intermediate sea kayak training in the afternoon kicked off with wet skills practice, working through each possible scenario, then progressed to rough water landings.

We then used the swell moving through the sea arches and caves to swim through and practice working with the moving water, in full kit.

The session culminated in the bay with extended rolling practice, and Lauren joining us as her last paddle with the Adventure Club before she leaves the Island for Manchester next weekend. Some superb rolls Lol, we'll check out the social elements of your time with us on Saturday...

We'll see everyone else next week!
