Advanced White-Water skills and safety/Level 5 Training.
Mark:
Clarkey it's training rather than an assessment. Level 5 Assessments are carried out in Ireland also.
Anywho, I would be be really interested in doing such a course Roger.

Partly due to guarenteed water, but also because the rivers are harder.
A level 5 proficiency has to be done on a level 4 river. which the Annamoe, even in huge water, is not, maybe jacksons, but that is only 1 rapid!

Your right there clarky, If I got enough people interested in running a L5 training, It would have to wait until the dargle was up, it wouldn't be run on the annamoe,
as for a general white-water skills/safety course, i think annamoe in big water would be just about sufficient
But ultimately, I suppose it would depend on what the instructor running whatever course it may be wanted to run it on
Monkey Loving Bob:
Wow Rog, this is a seriously impressive development! If any such course were to go ahead I'd be very interested in attending. One thing I would suggest - don't limit yourself, find a willing and apporpriate instructor (and a back up), then let them take care of the details such as date and location - they're the ones with the experience of running similar courses.
Any help I can give you is there man.
Conor.
Brendino:
I'd be interested in a course like this provided I'm available for the weekend. I need to brush up on everything. ::)
I'm From You:
Yeah I might be up for this too if it's going. Good work Roger.
