Which pretty much explains why they don't necessarily teach the kids
good paddling skills. I've seen some pretty scary things being taught
to scouts on whitewater.

However, I've also seen a lot of incompetent WW paddlers who are adults
and _couldn't_ learn anything. Unless they establish enforcable standards
for WW paddling, you have to deal with the others on the river.
