Course is Full- Level 4 ACA SWR- July 18-19 Rockport

Course is full, please be watching for additional courses.

Hi Folks,

We are offering a Level 4 Swiftwater Rescue course at Rockport, on the Ouachita River, July 18-19.

As many of you know, we offer several different styles of courses. This one is targeting the needs of whitewater paddlers.

We will be teaching the latest and most up to date techniques for dealing with entrapments, pinned craft, swimmers who are in danger of flush drowning and working on awesome ways of using your rescue PFD for self rescue and the rescue of others!

This course is a prerequisite for our Level 5 Advanced Swiftwater Rescue course, which will be held in August.

Our courses bring you the opportunity to learn from highly experienced instructors that paddle and teach internationally, and we focus on what you actually need to know, instead of what you don't... NO FLUFF, just hands on learning at it's finest.

Why is it worth the drive to Malvern/Rockport? In one word, WATER! (and lots of it!!) We love using this site because it enables us to teach in realistic conditions.We base at "Porter Fields" which is on the river right side of the Rockport Ledge. This gives us access to the river with no additional driving. By learning these skills in an actual whitewater environment, you can be confident that they will work for you when you actually need them.

The cost for this course is 135.00 which includes free camping on-site thanks to the City of Malvern.

Best Regards,
