Paddleboarding in winter is so much fun! The rivers have so much more flow with the additional rainfall. They develop eddies, boils and flows that require a completely different set of skills to navigate. Learning to read the water is so important if you want to paddle upstream. It's a lot of hard work if you don't understand where to find the slack water.

These ladies joined us for She Can Be Active sessions over the summer and are now having a great time finding out how to use the water to their advantage. They are becoming very proficient paddleboarders and they'll be ready to try paddling white water before the end of this season ❤️

We paddle throughout the year. As white water paddleboarders we relish the winter paddles, that's when we get to play! If you want to expand your boundaries and learn more about moving water, now is the time!

Cooler days don’t mean the adventures have to end! Here’s how to gear up for autumn paddling so you can stay warm and dry all season 🍂

✅ Swap your rash vest for a thermal base layer
✅ Wear a cag over your base layers — it will keep you dry and block the wind chill
✅ Switch your shorts for neoprene trousers
✅ Planning to paddle right through autumn and winter? A dry suit is a bigger investment, but it will keep you warm and dry throughout all seasons
✅ Pogies, neoprene mitts or gloves, and boots will help you stay warm and paddling for longer
✅ If kayaking, a spray deck will keep you dry and lock the heat in
✅ Don’t forget a hat
✅ A changing robe will help you stay warm when you get off the water too
