Description

Progressive Stadium White Water Award Available 4th January 2021

Your Progressive  Stadium White Water Award progresses your ability in decision-making and paddling skills and enables you to have a safe and fun day out on white water.

This award will further progress your ability to gather all the information you need about the water you are paddling on so that you can make the right choices. You will ensure that the release or features are suitable for your ability. As well as ensuring the features you choose are challenging enough to suit the purposes of your session. You and your Coach will consider the best equipment for the conditions you shall be paddling on. As well as considering further safety equipment for the more advanced conditions.

What is it all about?

For a successful session on white water you will need to have a range of skills. This award develops your existent white water skills to allow you to blend planned activity to recovery abilities to allow for a successful session on the water. You will continue to develop your tactics when running a river.

This includes:

  • Identifying hazards and features to avoid.
  • Using the topography and features of the course to help you maintain or change direction

 You will consider what techniques you can use when paddling with others, such as your positioning and the environmental awareness required when paddling with other water users. As well as further rescue skills to help should they, or you, capsize or get into difficulty.

After each session you and your Coach will reflect on what went well and where you would like to go next. Each day we spend paddling we further expand our skills and knowledge, creating a more enjoyable experience on the water. With no two experiences ever the same, we never stop learning. Continually evaluating the choices we make creates a natural evolution of decision making and paddling ability.
