A morning session and and afternoon session – numbers for the event are kept small maximum of 20 participants to be be able to separate and socially distance group gatherings.
Monday participants will be separated in 4 x small groups to practice rolling in real situations, either on calm water while on a long paddle working on skills, and enjoying the stunning scenery with the potential to spot wonderful wildlife OR head to a surf venue to work on rolling in dynamic water, and catch some waves!
