Hey all,
I'd like to first say awesome job out there Wednesday. I think that everyone worked hard and it seemed like everyone was moving the whole time they were on the water which is my goal this year, just keep paddling. We focused on using our abs, legs, and torso to drive our boat forward and use our bigger muscle groups. This is a skill I will keep bringing up every session, so be ready!
This Saturday we are going to be meeting at 9 am at the sycamore island parking area off of Clara Barton Parkway (GPS coordinates are: 38.9581, - 77.1314). That is for regular Cheat, elite parking is in the top lot off MacArthur. Please be there ready to load boats and van at 9.
One thing I'd like to mention is having To do with rescues. I understand that everyone wants to help out with there is a situation, and I encourage that mostly, but when there are trained instructors and helpers in the area of a rescue please let them handle it. They have been trained, they have experience, and it's part of their job. If you would like to learn about river rescue please think about joining us for a swiftwater rescue the weekend of May 18.
This Saturday we will be focusing on using the edges of our boats to help us get to where we want to go. It is hard to move these big Long boats and you edges can really help you. During the warm up Saturday we will do an edge drill as well as talk about the stern draw.
Can't wait to see y'all Saturday morning!
Go fast, take chances,
Steve-O
