  • Beginner Book for Kayakers Revised December 2016
    Beginner Book for Kayakers Revised December 2016 1 The Beginner Book is an unofficial publication for the Pikes Peak Whitewater Club. It was written and edited by members of the Pikes Peak Whitewater Club based off their experiences and observation. These members have kayaking experience ranging from months to over 30 years. However, they are not professional kayakers and are not certified instructors with the American Canoe Association or affiliated organizations. This book is not to be construed as an all-inclusive manual of every possible risk and/or scenario that could happen during the sport of whitewater kayaking; it’s simply an overview of helpful insights and “things to keep in mind” as you learn the sport. This book is not meant to take the place of any formal kayak training from any qualified organization nor is the information included to be construed as a guarantee of one’s personal safety in this sport. The risks of this sport include injury and even death and every participant assumes responsibility for themselves with the full awareness and acknowledgement that no reading material or formal training can ever guarantee against the risks. 2 Beginner Orientation Kayakers encompass a wide range of personalities. People like the sport for a variety of reasons; including the adrenaline, the relaxation, the enjoyment of being on water, the culture and camaraderie. The reasons you enjoy, or are drawn to kayaking will determine the types of rivers you run, the level of risk you are willing to accept and types of techniques and maneuvers you will need to learn.
