Adult Freestyle/Playboating Clinics

The Adult Freestyle Clinics are designed to help you take your paddling to a whole new level. This is where you are introduced to the acrobatic side of kayaking. You will learn how to perform basic maneuvers such as stern-squirts, eddy-line cartwheels, and side surfing. We will even cover advanced moves such as cartwheels, air-loops, and space Godzilla’s in a fun and safe environment. Our instructors are no strangers to the competitive freestyle circuit. They have competed against the best in national and regional competitions. Our instructors will start off each class with a video review session, on how to perform each maneuver. Next they will go to the water and try to put what they learned in the classroom to work. While being on the water you will be filmed, so you can see what you doing correctly, and be able to see what you need to work on for the next class. You will have a goal that you will want to reach, and it will be the job of our instructors to teach you the proper steps of progression for you to reach your goals on the water.  We provide a kayak, paddle, sprayskirt, PFD and helmet. 

All participants must be able to swim and students must have demonstrated a good roll with one of our instructors before attending this class.

A minimum of 3 participants are required.  GWC reserves the right to cancel the course if the minimum is not met.
