WHITE WATER

Club trips featuring white water take place in Wicklow later in the year, new members can experience higher volume paddling for the first time and are encouraged join in with the more experienced paddlers in running rapids and wave-trains as many times as possible, all in the name of catching the white water bug.

CANOE POLO

We focus on Canoe Polo training in our Wednesday pool sessions, members also get the opportunity to compete in the Dublin Canoe Polo League.

FREESTYLE

Freestyle is what we focus on Thursday pool sessions, and we can practice tricks on the wave at sluice on river trips. Plenty of members will teach you cool tricks to practice and watching a youtube video for some tips is always a great shout.

LONG DISTANCE

A discipline that our club mainly focuses on just before varsities. Any kayaker of any ability can do this. We have high-performance (HP), general-performance (GP) boats for anyone wanting to participate. We also have a duo kayak, sea kayaks, and 2 canoes for any willing to compete in these mighty long-distance categories at varsities.

Long distance ranges from 2.5km - 10km

A discipline that is quite like whitewater however you are in a team of 4-8 members and you must bomb it down a river with features together in the quickest time possible.

We run BoaterX at the club ball and varsities
