If you’ve never paddled in an outrigger, or lack confidence in your paddling abilities, the FCRCC Novice Program welcomes you to learn basic paddling technique, boat safety and the Hawaiian paddling culture.
This is a co-ed program open to adults of all ages, and is coached by experienced FCRCC outrigger paddlers. Through this program, you will learn outrigger paddling technique (no paddling experience necessary), develop paddling fitness and be introduced to Hawaiian culture.
It is a lot of fun too! Once you have completed the novice session, we encourage you to advance into one of the FCRCC Outrigger Programs.
Practices are held Mondays from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm and Wednesdays from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm, leaving from the FCRCC Burrard site. You are welcome to attend just one or both practices each week. Warning, the more practices you attend, the more quickly you will become addicted to outrigger paddling!
