From the first to the forth of march my group at tec started our first week of kayaking. the first few days we were in the pool and on flat water.this was good for everyone to learn hoe to role.i learn to role on both sides but couldn't get the hand role. the next couple days we got to go out on the rivers.the first river we went on was the grey, it was good to get out there though there was little rapids we practiced our rolling in moving water,river navigation and getting in and out of eddies.we also went on the adahuta for half a day there was i big buffer wave close to the rocks with a eddie on the outer side.i tried a couple times to get to it on my 2nd try i flipped,tyred to role couple times(couldn't),so banged on my boat and waited hoping someone would T rescue me but didn't have enough time.yep i swam.the next day we got to go out to the Arnold.this was heps of fun.we practiced the same stuff again but this time there was alot of eddies in the middle of the river,boules and wave that we had a go at riding.there was a cool buffer wave,i rode it a couple times but on last try a flipped couldn't role,panicked and swam,i was real annoyed for not holding on for longer and trying again.
still had some good runs and learnt alot cant wait to go again!
