Hi all,
My motivation for starting Kayaking was a combination of wanting to get fit and my son had already started and i wanted to be able to go out with him and look out for him whilst out and about Kayaking. I was introduced to the club by Neil.
My first night was nerve racking as i felt my very limited kayak experience put me in a very basic place to start to learn the skills to become proficient in Kayaking. My nerves were soon put to rest once i met some of the amazing, friendly members who were more than willing to take time to help me and put my nerves at rest.
Since then i have progressed from learning essential basic knowledge, to going out on the wild river and conquering features, rapids and flowing water that i would never have imagined that i would be able to do! After spending time in the real world with these guys i feel lucky that i have such friendly, knowledgable mentors and frankly would not feel safe out on wild water with any other mixture of guys.
I can’t wait to progress my skills further and take part in more adventures as my journey continues!
Thanks All !
