This Weekend White Water
Assessments and Trip
We will still be running the Saturday morning fitness
session at 7.15am.
What you will need if you want to do your Avon Descent
Assessment this weekend.
Boat
Paddle
PFD
Helmet
Footwear
(Spraydecks for kayaks).
Wear warm clothing
Warm clothing is essential. You will be swimming in
the water. After a capsize or two in the water you will
get very cold. If it rains or the wind is blowing up
the river you'll get even colder. Remember when learning
the white water skills you are not working hard, so
if you don't have enough clothing on you will sit there
and shiver.
It is essential not to wear cotton as when it gets wet
it stays wet. Best to wear thermals, sharkskin tops
and a paddling cag or clothing that is similar.
On your lower body wear neoprene pants, Sharkskin bottoms,
thermals or clothing that is similar. Kayakers may wear
neoprene shorts and thermal long johns but ski paddlers
really need long pants.
Neoprene and Sharkskin pants will also protect your
legs when capsized or being swept down the river.
Be prepared, bring spare warm clothing.
Cost for the 3 hour Assessment Course is $90.00 which
includes entry to the Walyunga National Park.
