Omschrijving
The popularity of kayaking increases every year, and the appearance of kayaks in ad media is seemingly everywhere. Studies indicate that the popularity of kayaking in general is on the rise, as is the popularity of whitewater kayaking. There are no statistical studies that show the increase in the popularity of kayaking for senior citizens, however, but the fact that some outdoor adventure companies are starting to offer paddling trips aimed at an older demographic is indicative of the growing senior market.
These ads and outings, however, focus on "flat water" kayaking or, on occasion, whitewater rafting. There is never a mention of whitewater kayaking. I suspect the reason for this is the idea that some people may have that whitewater kayaking is something only younger people do because it is dangerous and requires a lot of strength.
I discovered whitewater kayaking at the age of sixty-six. In less than three years, through a lot of hard work and study, I became certified as a Level 3 whitewater instructor by the American Canoe Association. I know, therefore, that older people can enjoy whitewater kayaking at least through Class III rapids if they are trained correctly.
I strongly believe that whitewater kayaking can provide a good physical experience for mature paddlers as well as a sense of excitement, but first they have to try it. My book provides information about whitewater kayaking in a methodical, progressive manner that is easy to understand. After reading my book, a paddler, especially an older paddler, will be able to put together a personal learning plan that will enable them to participate in whitewater kayaking in a safe, enjoyable manner.
