Questions from a newbie
Richard Seaby wrote in message ...
which club are you with? there are several round Southampton - most will have some suitable trip going on over Christmas at some point I would have thought. Many clubs are happy to take 'drop ins' for these sort of trips if you ask. The main issue is having suitable kit to keep you warm . If you haven't paddled outside the pool them you probably don't need lessons - just a bit of time on the water to sort out going strait - not as easy as it sounds on a windy river! Richard Hello Richard Good thinking! I'll ask the local clubs if there are any "humbugs" who would rather paddle than sit in front of the TV watching Christmas dross : ) I haven't formally joined a club yet but have had a couple of lessons thanks to Salisbury CC and shall be checking out Ringwood CC tomorrow. Do you paddle with a local club? Do they accept novices? I think you may be right about just needing a bit of time on the water to practice. The pool isn't big enough to get into the swing of it and learn paddling in a straight line to any degree. The kit issue is a bit of a problem...oh well, I'll just have to go shopping I suppose : ) Liz. |
