Prerequisite


Para consejos e instrucciones, véase Natación II.


1

Demostrar de manera satisfactoria al examinador que tiene conocimiento de las distintas clases de kayaks (Slalom, ríos, turismo, mar), los usos de cada uno y el equipo necesario para la seguridad en los kayaks (casco, chaleco salvavidas, faldón, lazada de la proa y popa, equipo de flotación para kayaks).


Kayak Types

Slalom Kayak
These are used in slalom racing. A slalom race takes place on a whitewater course, and the kayaker must maneuver the kayak between several pairs of poles called "gates". Green-colored gates must be entered by paddling downstream, and red-colored gates must be entered by paddling upstream. The minimum length of a slalom kayak is four meters, and the minimum width is 60 cm. Slalom kayaks are usually built out of fiberglass or composite materials. Light weight is a very desirable characteristic in these boats.

Equipment

Helmet
A helmet should be worn any time a kayak is taken into whitewater. Whitewater is "white" because of rocks, and have the potential to seriously injure a person. The greatest danger addressed by a helmet is that of striking the head on an underwater obstacle when overturned in fast moving current.


2

Demostrar la capacidad de entrar y salir de un kayak:


The first step in all of these is to make sure you're wearing a lifejacket. If you're going to paddle in swift water, put on your sprayskirt and helmet too.

2a

De una playa



2b

Desde un muelle o desembarque



2c

De aguas profundas




3

Demostrar la capacidad para realizar las siguientes brazadas:


3a

Recto hacia adelante y hacia atrás con el remo



3b

Remando de izquierda y derecha hacia adelante y hacia atrás



3c

Mover en brazada (amplia)



3d

Brazada de soporte



3e

Remando de cruzar la corriente




4

Explicar los pasos que envuelven la vuelta esquimal y demostrar el buen método de hacerla.


Learning the Eskimo roll requires both instruction and practice. The roll itself is the act of uprighting an overturned kayak by use of the paddle and body motion. Typically by lifting the torso towards the surface, flicking the hips to right the kayak halfway up and applying a righting force by means of the paddle while tucking close to the front or back deck.


5

Explicar cómo reparar un agujero en fibra de vidrio:


5a

De manera permanente en un taller (fibra de vidrio)



5b

En una reparación de emergencia en la orilla del río (cinta adhesiva)




6

Después de completar un mínimo de dos sesiones de entrenamiento, completar ya sea
a. Un viaje de la noche a la mañana en kayak
b. Dos días de viaje (uno de ellos debe incluir aguas rápidas)


See requirement 4 for links to kayaking clubs. Many of these offer training in the spring for a small fee. You can also check with local outfitters for commercial training programs or for information on local clubs. Clubs and outfitters will also be able to advise you on good rivers for an overnight trip or for a day trip including easy whitewater.
