This is NOT A CLINIC! A currents clinic or equivalent experience is mandatory. Doing the clinic the day before as part of our incident management package is OK. We'll be playing in and around deception pass, first catching some flood, having lunch, then playing in the ebb. We'll be doing the usual stuff, practicing rescues, rolling, etc. Members only.
