You don’t need to be a Class IV boater to join, but you do need the willingness to challenge yourself at that level. It’s important that you feel comfortable padding Class III and have a solid combat roll in Class III.
If you book into this course I’m assuming that you have self-assessed, and that you are confident and comfortable paddling and combat rolling in Class III whitewater. If you have any concerns or questions, please email me before booking.
Once the course has started, if I determine that you do not meet the above requirements, Mind Body Paddle is not obligated to offer easier alternatives, nor is Mind Body Paddle obligated to refund any part of the course fee.
Our maximum group size is 4 participants and 2 coaches.
You are required to paddle a creek boat. This is a creeking intensive experience and it’s important that you paddle in a suitable boat that reduces the risk of injury to you, the group, and the coaches. Slicey boats will not be permitted.
You are required to bring your own boat.
