Traditional Greenland Kayak Brace and Sculling Course Information
What to Bring
Course Fee
- The Traditional Kayaking course helps to improve the balance and grace of a paddler
while on the water. Students in this course learn how to lessen the chances of capsizing a
kayak from a breaking wave or boat wake. Paddlers will work to develop low and high
brace recovery strokes; as well as, learn that sculling is just about playing with degrees of
wetness. By the end of class paddlers will gain confidence on the water.
What to Bring
- Bring your own qajaq paddle, kayak, spray skirt, and PFD, or let us know if you need
equipment. Although most sea kayaks respond successfully to traditional techniques,
some perform better than others do, such as those that are narrow (23” or less), low-
volume, with a low stern deck. I recommend the following kayaks for this class. A secure-
fitting spray skirt is important. Some traditional paddles will be available. Dress
comfortably and bring layers appropriate to the day's weather. For rolling practice in
cooler weather I recommend using a wet suit or dry suit (or dry top). Participants should
bring a picnic lunch. Other handy items include a water bottle, sun block, a strap for
glasses, and nose clips (though we have a few extras to loan).
Course Fee
- The $40 course fee is payable upon registration. This amount includes instruction,
insurance, resource materials, and snacks and beverages during breaks.
It does not include all equipment; rental fees may apply for boats.
