Kayak Rolling 202: Kayak River Rolling

Paddling Date: Fri May 18, 2012 - Sat May 19, 2012

River Rolling 202: Often neglected in paddling circles, the bombproof roll is making a comeback in the 2012. Join us for two days of hard work emphasizing rolling in turbulent river situations. It's going to be fun, but we're going to spend lots of time upside down. Why? Because as your paddling progresses to more difficult levels you really should be able to roll up 99% of the time in class III or IV water. So... if you NEVER miss a roll in the pool/pond, but OCCASIONALLY swim in real river situations, then this class is for you. The course will be taught in a progression of locations moving from flat water (Friday evening at a local pond tweaking technique) through moving current and culminating in a Class III wavehole. The locations will be selected based on water flow and safety. Course Fees: $25/$30 (AMC Members/Non-Members). Camping (~$20) will be arranged for the weekend of the course.

Boston Chapter Trips

Volunteer leaders do their best to facilitate safe, quality events. Your participation in these trips, however, acknowledges that there are inherent risks in any outdoor activity that cannot be entirely eliminated. You will therefore be required to sign a liability waiver to participate in any AMC event other than social activities. To view the liability waiver and the AMC "Leadership Requirements and Guidelines" which all AMC leaders follow, go to www.outdoors.org/volunteers/leadership/.

Organizers of activities are not paid, nor take any personal profit, for running a particular event. However, when funds are collected for food and/or lodging, a portion of each participant’s trip fee could possibly be used to subsidize the organizers' expenses. If the trip is being run at a facility owned by a leader, it will be designated with the following code: LOF (Leader Owned Facility).
