CLINT ROBINSON OCEAN PADDLING CLINIC
​Magnetic Island

"Once in a while an opportunity comes along that you have to have a good crack at and grab with both hands because you know the adventure will be a memorable and defining one. This past few days I made the journey north to the warmer climes of stunning Magnetic Island and her 320 days of annual sunshine to partake in an intensive paddling clinic with Clint Robinson - Olympic legend, world champion in 5 different paddle sports and a seriously humble, grounded down to earth top bloke!
Destination Adventure - a brilliant and extremely professional outfit whom I'd highly recommend - who ensured we were all fed with wholesome goodness, watered and well looked after all weekend. Thank you for your time and energy Clint and the invaluable information you have passed on and thank you Daina for making this happen. I look forward to the next one.....it was certainly epic."

- Kim Vaughan, April 2017

HIGHLIGHTS


PROGRAM
*Subject to change

8:00am                              
Arrive and Welcome Gathering, then ski set up 
 
8.30-11:30am        

On Water Video of Technique session, followed by off water Video Analysis 
Each paddler will be personally filmed so they understand visually what elements of the stroke need to be developed, so a clear understanding is in their mind after the video feedback is given 
at the conclusion of the water work. 
 
Noon - 1:00pm            
Lunch  Barefoot Food Art and Wine Restaurant Horseshoe Bay
 
1.30 - 2pm                       
30-minute Stretch and Core Engagement 
This portion of each day is dedicated to developing the key flexibility points for each paddler and to help them understand where we are looking to feel where the power is coming from in the stroke.
 
 
2.30-4.30pm          
Firm Endurance session & Group Performance Races – we will do a short firm fitness-based workout so that advice can be given as the session progresses when fatigue creeps in, so each paddler knows what areas they need to be mindful of when training on their own in solid workouts. Then the Performance Races is an excitable period of time brings out the passion and competitive spirit in a team performance environment towards the end of our time together.  It also allows Clint to give feedback each paddler in high intensity work. 
 
5.00pm                        
Depart the island
