Improve Your River Running in our Steep Creekin’ Kayak Clinic

Spring runoff allows us to experience some of New England’s best steep whitewater. This one-day clinic, for advanced closed canoe and kayak paddlers only, teaches the specific techniques of creeking including boofing, catching micro-eddies, and reading steep rapids on the fly. If you want to explore New England’s best-hidden whitewater, this clinic is for you.

This clinic is taught by top river runners who pass on their years of experience and in-depth knowledge of creeking techniques. Our instructor-to-student ratio for this clinic is one to three. We stress the use of good judgment in analyzing routes and minimizing risk. Join us to expand your river running repertoire.
