First pool session since lockdown
Venue: Piran Meadows Resort & Spa, Newquay

Eight hopeful kayak-rollers hit the water on Thursday 13th November, joined by three top-drawer coaches at the brilliant Piran Meadows Resort pool. The warm water and cracking facilities made all the difference, nudging everyone that bit closer to nailing the elusive roll.

Huge thanks to Lee, Lee and Steve for giving up their evening and pushing us all on.


There are plenty of spaces over the coming Thursday nights, so if you're keen to learn or sharpen your roll, this is genuinely the best chance you'll get. Grab a slot while they're going!
