Intermediate Kayak
Now that you taken the basics class and had time to practice, you may want to refine your strokes and add to your skills. Intermediate Kayak will add maneuvering strokes ( bow rudder, stern rudder, sideslip, low brace turn etc..) that can turn and control your boat effortlessly. Support strokes or bracing, a skill to prevent capsizing, will also be added. Towing methods and group leadership will be introduced and what to carry in your boat on longer trips. We will take all these skills and learn to use them while in motion as we do in everyday paddling.

The Kayak Roll
The kayak roll is not a advanced skill, it is a skill that can be added at any stage in a paddler's progression of learning. With our three step process on the surface you will build the muscle memory necessary to roll before you try underwater, eliminating a lot of the dunking. With a roll, you will find you will advance you're skills quickly because you won't worry about capsizing, it's also a great way to cool down in Texas. Discover Kayak has a 85% success rate in the first two hour session, 100% in the follow-up when necessary. You may return for follow ups as much as needed, no extra charge.
