    2 star group - February 5th Basin Session

    As last week I am posting here to confirm what you 2 stars would like to cover next week.  My suggestion is the following:

    Warm up with forward paddling concentrating on efficient tecnique as covered previous session

    Low brace turns, bow rudders and stern rudders - using the slalom poles as an obstacle course  (Remind me to bring the stop watches from the office so we can have a bit of competition!)

    Quick game of polo to put into practice some of our manouvering skills

    I have booked the pool for the week after so we can practice recovery strokes and rescues in a nice warm environment.

    Let me know if you want to add or change anything.

    Helen,

     Thanks for this, seems to cover most of the 2* sylabus.  Please be aware that a number of regular 2*-ers are going on Luke's open canoe course from 19 Feb..  Would it also be possible at some time in mid march to have a dry session of those theory sections of the sullabus for revision,  i.e.  safety, carrying boats, where you can navigate, etc, etc.

    Regards, Rob

    It's a great idea to do Luke's open canoe course.  We can easility do a dry session in March if enough people want it.  Preferred location is the pub.cheers
