Patagonia Kayak School:
Intermediate Kayak Instruction
 
 
 
 
 

Our intermediate kayak school courses are designed for those with previous whitewater roll experience. We will be paddling appropriate sections of the Rio Espolon, Rio Azul and the Rio Futaleufu.




Class II/III Our 4 day and 6 day, Whitewater Tune-Up


We start by assessing your paddling skills and based on that, your instructor, along with your, input will develop a personalized kayak instruction program for the week. Our goal in this kayak school course is to discover what is holding you back and to take your kayaking ability level to a higher plane. In this paddling school course we often specialize in bomb-proofing your kayak roll, learning to roll on the off-side, high and low bracing strategies, precise ferrying, kayak lean, and control & draw strokes. This kayak school course makes extensive use of videotape feedback and analysis.




Week Version (8 Days in Patagonia, Chile / 7 overnights / 6 Active Days)
Lite Version (6 Days in Patagonia, Chile / 5 overnights / 4 Active Days)



Class III/IV Our 4 day and 6 day, Intro to Big Water


Have you ever dreamed of paddling exotic big water, like the Colorado, Futaleufu, or the Zambezi? Do you want to make the leap from paddling Class III whitewater to paddling the Class IV-/IV+ or higher whitewater? If so, this kayak school week is for you and serves as our "Gateway to the Futaleufu" and the guided trips offered at our Campo Tres Monjas kayak camp. We take you step-by-step through the Ten rules of Big Water Paddling. You will come home with incredible experiences and skills. During this kayak instruction week we emphasize river reading skills, eddy hopping, rolling on both sides, boat scouting, boat piloting, boat momentum, and lateral moves - all designed to make river running precise and as effortless as possible. Here you will learn to safely harness the power of the river, and work with it, to put your kayak where it needs to be.




Week Version (8 Days in Patagonia, Chile / 7 overnights / 6 Active Days.)
Lite Version (6 Days in Patagonia, Chile / 5 overnights / 4 Active Days)
