Beginner Kayak Course Everyday (IPP2) - Amager Strand, 2 days

**Please bring the following to the course yourself: **

• Nice big packed lunch (we have fridge for storage in Amager Strand).
• Powerbar/fruit/chocolate/nuts/raisins in a freezer bag - quick energy to carry on the water.
• Water bottle (it is important to keep the fluid balance at even).
• Suitable kayak shoes, preferably neoprene shoes (wet shoes). If you do not have neoprene shoes, these can be purchased at the storefor a special course price. We advise against bare feet!
• Inner lining according to the 3-layer principle depending on the season (described in the next section). If you need long underwear /insulating clothing, this can be purchased at our well-stocked shop in Amager Strandpark.

**In addition, we recommend that you bring: **

• Swimwear/towel.
• A hat, to wear in the water and on the water.
• Cap/sunhat/sunglasses as well as sunscreen during the summer season.
• Glasses cord if you want to wear glasses/sunglasses with you on the water.
• Warm clothes for the breaks.
• Changing clothes.

For the course, kayak wetsuit (so-called longjohn without sleeves, and with a zipper at the front), anorak, swimming vest, kayak, paddle, spray deck and safety equipment are on loan.

**Understand the 3-layer principle and how to dress according to the conditions! **

First of all, we dress according to the 3-layer principle. Briefly described, the principle consists of one:

• Inner layer (1st layer), which is a sweat-wicking layer, such as wool or sportswear in plastic (e.g. trackwear/ski underwear).
• Middle layer (2nd layer), which is an insulating layer of wool or fleece, preferably in a thicker material (the cooler the air/water the more layers you can fill, and preferably more thin layers than one thick one)
• Outer layer (3rd layer), which is a shell layer that is water and windproof (anorak is used here, as well as wetsuit that both insulates as a 2nd layer and is wind/waterproof).

Feel free to show up dressed in swimwear and tight-fitting sportswear in plastic or wool under your normal clothes - then you can quickly get into the wetsuit.

The store opens half an hour before the start of the course if you need to buy, for example, neoprene shoes, but you are very welcome to use the above offer in the period leading up to the course by contacting the store with the name and date of the course. The Kayak hotel store has a wide selection where you can find everything from water bottles, hats, caps, gloves, glasses laces, underwear and outerwear. Coffee, tea, cocoa, beer/water, sandwiches and energy bars/muesli bars can also be purchased at the café.

**Registration for the course is binding. **

If you purchased a cancellation guarantee at the same time as your booking, you have the option to cancel your booking up to 10 days before the booked date.

If there are 10 days or less left, you have the opportunity to rebook once within 12 months - this also applies in case of illness. Simply notify us no later than 24 hours before the course.
