Upgrade your Flatwater skills: TKs to Ks
If you’ve been paddling the TKs for a while, and feel like its time to try moving up a level, now is your chance. For a limited time, an experienced K1 paddler is willing to help club members move from their regular TK boats to the top level K boats.
This is a great chance to increase your skills and balance (useful in all disciplines). How fast can you really go? Don’t miss out.
Until the end of Semester 2, 2011
