Paddler Co-op

I have interacted with the Paddler Co-op for gear rentals and a white water instruction clinic. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience, and intend to return for more instruction and future events. The staff are incredibly welcoming to newcomers, they are knowledgeable about kayaking whitewater. During our instruction clinic, the staff maintained a careful balance of providing guidance to their students but allowing them to learn on their own through experience. I was impressed that the staff was able to recall specific teaching points for each student and follow up on those goals later in the trip. They were also very approachable, friendly and easy to converse with to contribute to an overall enjoyable trip down river.

2021-Amazingly knowledgeable, positive, supportive staff. Whitewater canoeing at its best. They can meet you where you're at and help you get so much better. If you can request guides, you need to try and get Kevin and/or Finn. Returned Aug 2022- did the "Lower Mad", guided, with a bit lower water- equally as fun, educational and exhilarating!!
