Kayak Clinics:

What do I need to wear?

The water on the Green River is warm. If the weather is warm, a bathing suit and shoes that will stay on your feet while swimming are recommended. During early spring and late fall, we recommend layering with synthetics such as fleece or polypropylene. Anything you forgot or need for the trip can be purchased in our store.

Kayak Instruction - Beyond The Basics

Our "Beyond The Basics" clinic was designed to meet our clients' request for a logical "next step" after taking "Introduction to Whitewater Kayaking." This clinic is a perfect follow up to the information and skills gained in an "Intro" clinic, where you will continue to work on river running skills and strategies on Class II whitewater. We will likely paddle the Lower Green, Tuckaseegee, or Nolichucky River. Skills that you can work on are; eddy turns, ferries, efficient strokes, river reading, surfing, and rolling. Similar to day two of the "Intro" clinic, we will be moving down river all day, stopping at the best teaching spots and learning new skills, while reinforcing what you've already learned. For those of you who have let your kayak sit in the garage all winter (shame on you), this is a great way to shake off the dust and paddle with confidence!

Transportation

Clients must provide their own transportation to and from the river.

Gear and equipment

All gear and equipment is provided for you, if you don't have your own. We purchase the hottest new boats and equipment in the industry each year!
