ROLLING LESSONS
TopSport staff are trained with the most updated rolling technique and teaching styles as practiced by the New Zealand Outdoor Instructors Association.
Although it is not currently a requirement for the Grade 2 certificate we highly recommend that everyone learns how to roll their kayak.
It is an essential skill.
Being able to roll your kayak boosts confidence, saves you time and of course saves you from a swim amongst turbulent water and rocks.
We provide private and group sessions up to 1:3 to ensure you get the required attention.
A safe warm environment makes learning easier so an indoor pool is the ideal place to learn. Our pool of choice is the Wharenui Pool in Christchurch.
If the season is warmer, we are happy to teach outdoors such as a calm pool in the river, a lake or a calm bay in the sea/harbour.
Costs start from $49 pp p/h
If this sounds like you please get in touch, we promise you have made the right choice!

Success On The River
Topsport Kayaking was instrumental in all three of my Longest Day victories. Len and Caleb’s help was invaluable and I owe my success on the river to them. I completed my Grade Two course with Topsport and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone getting into the sport. Thanks Topsport!
