About the British Canoeing SUP Paddle Discover Award

Course Details

The British Canoeing Certificated Discover Award is for anybody that has already done a Paddle Start Award or anyone with previous paddling experience that would like to develop and expand their decision-making and practical paddling skills. You will learn how to choose and effectively use equipment, whilst gaining an understanding of the factors which affect your paddling.

  • Full Day
  • Min age 8 – under 18s must be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian
  • Max 8 people
  • Lake Based

 

It aims to:

  • Encourage independent decision-making on different bodies of water (ie moving rivers, canals, estuaries and harbours) covering safety aspects and weather conditions.
  • Develop your understanding of how to prepare for self-guided adventures
  • Cover equipment selection you may need for a variety of trips
  • Further develop your personal Paddling and Rescue techniques

At the end of the course we cover the options for further progression such as the Explore Award and Paddle Trails.

 

What to bring:

  • Wet shoes (if you have them) or a pair of trainers (you don’t mind getting wet), avoid shoes that will fall off your feet like crocs and flip-flops
  • A towel
  • Swimwear to put on under your wetsuit
  • Warm clothing to wear after your session
  • A few snacks and a bottle of water
  • Sun cream, sunlight reflected off the water will cause you to burn more easily
  • If you have a wetsuit you are more than welcome to bring your own, but if you don’t have one we can provide one
