Tuition GroupingsAfter a successful trial in 2017, we are once again planning to offer some "Paddle Tuition" over the 4 days. It maybe not be for everyone, but maybe it may!
The idea is for an experienced paddle guide/instructor to instruct 5 others in areas of paddling they may wish to increase their skill set. It won't be just for beginners, it will be for all standards of paddlers. Initially we will just concentrate on groups for day 1 and expand throughout the paddle. Watch This Space! This is where we'll post some Youtube clips of basis paddle strokes. We encourage everyone to be familiar with these. |
Wellington to Narromine Paddle - Thursday 22 - Sunday 25 November 2018
Group 1 Guide:
Group 1 Paddlers: To be advised
PaddleNSW Single Event Insurance
It is a requirement of this event that all participating paddlers and Support Crew have PaddleNSW Insurance. This is automatically included for PaddleNSW members, and can be arranged as Single Event insurance for non-members and crew. Current cost is $20 for paddlers, free for crew.
Boat Hire
The WomDomNom is not an event for first-time paddlers. It is a requirement that participants be able to maintain a speed of 6kmh and negotiate grade 1-2 rapids and this takes practice.
We recommend intending paddlers make contact with a club in your area to arrange boat hire before you register, so you can practise in the boat you will be using on the paddle. We recommend:
The Macquarie River Paddle Club owns 6 single kayaks that may be available for use by local paddlers if not already allocated.
