Coaching with the Three River Serpents in Durham.

Several paddlers from Windermere and Scotland willingly travelled to Durham to refresh and hone their paddling and skills ready for a new season of paddling. David helmed for us. On a busy day of coaching Keni took us through the elements of the stroke gradually building the challenge to work together synchronously, with power and efficiency whilst also working to build our stamina. We also practised race starts and short races on Saturday afternoon. The following day mixed Paddlers for Life and Three River Serpents crews raced each other in ‘friendly’ rivalry.
