Is that what all you guys are definately signing up for, or is there some confusion about what the different REC levels are, and what they mean? Remember - kayaking only needs up to REC3. REC4 is for 'medics' accompying expeditions etc etc.

Just thought I'd remind people to look up info on what they're asking to do before they shell out goods bucks to do it. I don't have the time and/or inclination to find it on the web for them. Some student bum, possibly kmck, might, so all may not be lost!  ;D

Brendino:
Any update on the REC course Mark?

Just a thought for all of those interested, but the REC 3 training would really only be appropriate for anyone who wants to do an instructor training course or if you are planning on doing a lot of outdoor sports.

Of course there is nothing wrong with first aid training for anyone, but just bear it in mind that you don't need to do it at all as all of the instructors and most of the senior paddlers are trained and qualified and carry first aid kits with us on the rivers.

Sara:
that post reminds me of a cartoon where one paddler is lying injured on the ground and another padder goes 'where's the first aid guy?', the other's respond 'your looking at him'

Its just my opinon but I think everyone should have a REC3, people use the training for everyday incidents not just outdoors stuff.
