This trip is limited to members with a wet exit certification (except for level 1 trips when the paddler is not using a spray skirt....if the paddler is wearing a spray skirt on a level 1 paddle, the Wet Exit Certification is REQUIRED). To successfully register you will need to sign into your OOPS member account, and your account will need to be a member of the "Wet Exit Certified" group if you intend to wear a spray skirt. Your acceptance is conditional on approval by the Organizer, who may contact you with questions about your skills and equipment. If the measured water temperature is different enough from that listed below to warrant a change in required immersion protection, the Organizer will contact all participants and the Trips Board member with the update at least a day before the trip.

Full Name:Jasper Greve
Activity Title: Let's practice rescues and rolls! NE Portland. L1
Date of Activity: 9/1/2021
Narrative: Join me on the river to practice our rescues, rolls, braces, and whatever skills you want to work on! This is not a class, but I will help out where I can. If you need your wet exit certification, let me know and we can make that happen.

We are staying near the beach and vehicles, so there are warm-up options, however I recommend bringing at least a farmer john wetsuit to be comfortable while practicing.

Due to the nature of close contact of rescues practice we request that all participants be vaccinated against COVID.
