I have spoken with
Leo Hoare from
http://www.getafix.com/ in North [wikipedia:Wales] about running an open canoe 3 star training/moving water course on the weekend
16-17 23-24 February.
I recently did my 5 star whitewater training with him and was very impressed with his coaching and local knowledge of North [wikipedia:Wales].
The aim is to start working towards the 3-star open canoe award and get some of the required trips done while having fun and explorer some classic North [wikipedia:Wales] Rivers.
When: 16-17 23-24 February
Where: North [wikipedia:Wales]
Who: Anyone with 2 stars and a taste for some whitewater (up to grade 2) paddling in an open canoe
What's included:
- Accommodation at http://www.ffynnonwen.com/bunkhouse.htm for Saturday night
- Lunch and dinner Saturday
- Breakfast and lunch Sunday
- Canoes and paddles
- Top-class coaching on some classic North [wikipedia:Wales] rivers
What's not included:
- Transport to North [wikipedia:Wales] (we only need two cars!) and getting to-from the rivers
- Personal paddling kit - dry cag/trousers, buoyancy aid, helmet, suitable shoes, dry bags, thermos, etc.
- Accommodation Friday night
- Breakfast Saturday morning
Price: £187 (This is an absolute barging!)
Yolanda and I have already booked and there are 6 more places available. Please post here if you are interested and indicate if you need a lift or have your own car and can offer a lift to others.
Cheers
