British Canoeing
3 Star Touring (Kayak) Training / Assessment
Successful performance at 3 Star level indicates that a paddler can consider themselves to be an intermediate paddler rather than a beginner, having demonstrated personal competence as a member of a group paddling in a variety of venues. At Wild River we pride ourselves on our technical understanding of the discipline. We will teach you the most up to date techniques that will allow you to progress without any barriers. Course contentA 3 Star touring paddler can paddle as part of a group on open water in conditions of winds up to Beaufort Force 3, and/or ungraded rivers that have a discernible green flow. On this 2 day course we will cover all aspects of the syllabus helping you to acquire the basic skills for open canoeing. Like all our coaching we aim to give you straightforward options that will work in all environments. You can attend our 3 Star courses as a training or assessment or perhaps both. It is two days of coaching in the skills needed and has the opportunity to achieve the British Canoeing 3 Star Award. All candidates leave the course with a very clear, precise and personalised action plan: safe in the knowledge that they have a range of techniques that are effective and safe. VenuesDuring your course you will spend time on some of the idyllic Cumbrian Lakes. Likely open water venues include Derwentwater, Ullswater, Windermere.
