This past Friday we took a few of our students up to the Oneida Narrows. We couldn't have asked for better weather, it was hot and the water felt so good. The Oneida is a class II river great for teaching beginners. It is calm, all roadside, and has great little eddies to practice things such as ferrying, eddy turns and peel outs in.
Those that were there with Jackson and I were Wynn Ormand and his 13 year old son Liam. We also had 14 year old Parker Measom along with us, and my wife cruised along in an inflatable kayak. We did two laps on it and had an awesome time. Hopefully the flows stay good enough so that Rapid Progression can organize a river lesson there in the near future.

INTRO TO KAYAKING COURSE (JULY 16 - AUG 13)
So Rapid Progression just got done with the Hyrum parade and it was a blast!! It was fun being in the parade and hopefully getting the word out that Logan has a kayak school. The only downfall is that the candy we bought ran out a little over half way through. I guess our candy throwers got involved in all the excitement and unloaded all the candy to the kids in the first half of the parade. We had over 1,000 Otter Pops to throw out, but when i went to get them out of the freezer, they were still liquid. Too bad!!
So if anyone is visiting this blog spot because they were handed one of our flyers in the parade, thanks for expressing interest in the school. We are taking class sign-ups right now and spots are going to be filled up fast. If anyone has any further questions they can email me at rapidprogressionkayak@hotmail.com or call us at 435-764-4927. I also recommend checking out our website at www.rapidprogressionkayak.com The summer session of classes starts in less than two weeks! We hope to get a ton of people involved and show them a fun time! So whether you want to get ready to go down a river or just paddle on a lake, come join us and learn the skills that will get you going. We'll go over basic strokes, technique and most importantly.....the roll! Spread the word and come along with a friend for a good time.
