There are a few slots still available for the Davey Hearn whitewater clinic being held on Friday, May 13, starting at the feeder canal and taking a run through Little Falls on the Potomac River. Davey will be focusing on technical c-1 whitewater skills with attention given to boat control, paddle stroke techniques (including that elusive "j"-stroke :-? ), and reading the current dynamics. This clinic is a great place to address paddling stuff such as the cross-current issue that Larry Horne has brought up. This is not a slalom-specific clinic, but these skills definitely apply to whitewater running, so we may take advantage of using some of the slalom gates while we are there.

PM me if you would like more information or if you want to sign up. The clinic will run from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00, with about an hour for lunch. See Davey Hearn's website to learn more about this world champion and multi-time national champion.
