Winter and warming up to Pool Sessions
Winter in PG can be cold, snowy and offers surprisingly few
kayaking options besides hitting the road and heading south or out to the
coast.
That doesn't mean the Brigade stops or there is nothing
going on. Folks are hitting the pool or getting in some time on the snow to
keep them out of trouble.
Of course it is also fun to sit back kill a few cans and
watch the videos that were put together last season featuring some brigade boaters, local ish rivers etc...
Winter is a great time for new boater to spend some time
thinking about boating, looking into gear and getting into the pool to work out
one of the fundamental skills for whitewater kayaking... the roll. The interwebz is full of really good
instructional videos that break down the roll and provide insight into some of
the techniques that are integral to getting down the river.
Chris at H2O Dreams has a great set of videos that cover all
sorts of kayaking stuff (from gear and how to get into it to big playboating
moves) check ‘em out.
Another great source for instructional style videos:
And there are a host of paddling blogs worth checking out.
