About this Event
Greenland Rolling & Kayaking Skills Weekend with How We Roll and Sea Kayaking Cornwall
Join us for a weekend of Greenland-style rolling and kayaking techniques, paddling and fun. Please note that the Eventbrite ticket does not include camping. Please book the campsite directly via Tregedna Farm. There are also lots of B&Bs in the Falmouth area.
Friday Evening (Land based rolling Session):
We’ll kick off the weekend with a land-based exercise session where you'll learn the basic principles of Greenland rolling. This will set the foundation for the rest of the weekend's on-water training. Please let us know if you can't make it to the Friday evening session.
Rolling sessions:
Saturday will feature two on-water rolling sessions – one in the morning and another in the afternoon. We'll cover both beginner and advanced rolling techniques, with plenty of hands-on coaching to help you progress. A final rolling session on Sunday morning will refine your skills .
Trip and paddling skills:
Each day, you will also have the opportunity to work on your paddling techniques, including:
- Efficient forward paddling
- A variety of Greenland paddle strokes to improve control
This event is perfect for anyone wanting to learn their first Greenland rolls or for more experienced kayakers looking to refine their technique and to work of the harder rolls. All levels are welcome but you need to be confortable paddling a seakayak, if you are feeling unstable whilst paddling is will be very hard to learn to roll the kayak. Our experienced instructors will provide individualized feedback to help you develop your skills at your own pace.
Chris Reed from Reed Chillcheater will also be joining the event to help coach and offer a range of Greenland goods to demo & buy.
You can hire a kayak and/or kit from Sea Kayaking Cornwall, please contact them directly or let us know and we pass the request on. We have spare Greenland paddles so let us know if you need one. You can also bring your Euroblade paddles as the rolling skills we will be practicing are easily transferable.
