Eskimorolle lernen

Learn the roll in a kayak! Are you tired of emptying your boat every time you capsize? If you either can't roll yet or you want to improve your rolling technique on still water, then you've come to the right place!

We approach the Eskimo roll step by step, with lots of preliminary exercises. So everyone will have enough time to work on their own problem exercises. The aim of the course is for you to be able to do the Eskimo roll with the paddle. We know that the way to get there is slightly different for everyone. That's why we'll keep a close eye on you to give you exactly the tips that will help you progress!
