PC Level 2 Skills

Megan, me, Jack, and Kate on the overnight...it was a little drizzly.
I was lucky to run the PC L2 Skills for Deep Cove Kayak School this year. I always look forward to working with DC's new instructor team. They are so excited, focused and willing to improve their paddling skills. Thanks to Jack, Kate, Erin, Megan, and Rocky for making this an excellent course.

DCKS Staff Trip to Skookumchuck

Cold drinks at the end of a great day...
Gaz loving the Skook...
This year the staff at Deep Cove Kayak headed to Skookumchuck Rapids! It was awesome. For some of our staff it was there first real introduction to paddling in currents. The focus this year was to enjoy "park and play" kayaking, develop an understanding of learning styles and skills progression and of course...have a little fun!  
Surfing Skook!

PC IK Instructors



In March I ran a Paddle Canada IK Instructors course for SKILS. I co-taught the course with Coreena Rorke from Rocky Point Kayak. The weather was great, the students worked really hard and it was a joy to work with Coreena. It was a lot of fun. I paddled from deep cove and back each day. It was about 40 miles over three days..it was a great way to start the season! rockypointkayak.com
