Kayaking involves risks related to the water element and variable weather conditions. However, kayaking does not have to be dangerous when the risks are taken into account, and you have practiced and know how to act in unexpected situations, such as rescuing a friend.
We will organize a rescue course, where we go through the basics of buddy rescue, self-rescue and towing. The evening course is suitable for those who have not practiced rescue techniques before, or for those who want to repeat the techniques they have already learned. It is important to practice rescue techniques regularly.
You ca. bring a water bottle with you. Also remember to wear suitable clothes according to the weather. You can paddle with bare feet, crocs or other summer shoes that may get wet. You will also need a spare layer of clothing.
The course costs 40 euros, which is paid on the spot with Mobilepay or cash. The price includes kayak equipment (paddle, kayak, spray deck, paddling vest) and paddling instructors. Your valuables, such as phones and cameras are your own responsibility. The participants are not insured on behalf of the organizer. The tour guides are Eva Mannfolk and Jussi Kleemola. The evening is bilingual.
