What:
- bring your sliciest or stubbiest boat and practice and/or refine your stern squirts
- learn to turn your boring old backyard run into a magical playground of endless possibilities

Where:
- somewhere with good eddy lines and space to hang
- Powerhouse, Headworks, TBD depending on levels

Who:
- anyone who wants to learn or improve their stern squirt
- anyone with class 2/2+ boating skills and a reasonably reliable roll (you're going to flip a lot, accept it)
  - (not so sure about the roll part? Don't sweat it. We'll use the buddy system and the good old T-rescue to keep the good times... rolling)

How:
- practicing forward/back sweep and edging drills to help you unlearn everything you know about edges and eddy lines
- learning to use that core and them knees like you mean it
- relentless optimism and high repetitions (the repetitions is really what does it)
- stern squirting EVERYTHING (out of the eddy, into the eddy, dead center in the current facing upstream, it all goes)

Why:
- stern squirts are awesome
- but they're also the gateway to SO MANY rad down river freestyle tricks like pirouettes, splats, back wheels, etc
- and they open up a whole new set of possibilities on the river

Side Effects:
- grins
- whoops
- better combat rolls
- the respect of your peers
- the confusion of your family/colleagues (you can also say tailies for the squeamish)
- the realization that being shot out of a drop on your stern isn't the worst thing ever once you've been on your stern on purpose a few times
