Chris Eastabrook coaching is heading up to Scotland for 3 weeks of coaching, including the Student Safety Course.  The Alpine Slovenia course is getting booked up, but there are still spaces on all Chris Eastabrook coaching courses!

See you at PaddleFest / NSR if you are going.

For me kayaking is about two things, the rush of a successful navigation of a hard white water rapid and the sense of adventure. On trips to New Zealand, Turkey and Tibet I get both of these at the same time, but boating in North Wales or Scotland I can easily find somewhere to get the rush, and it can depend on the weather – has it rained enough? The sense of adventure in the UK can come from a single, pint inspired, idea of taking some overnight equipment, some food and heading out for a couple of days into the unexpected.

Chris Eastabrook, Coaching River Leading Paddling, has just put online a number of new courses to help you get that rush (Steep Creeking skills course), have an adventure (UK Touring) or get both at the same time (Turkey or Alpine Guiding).

For more information on these trips have a look through the website.

Cheers!
