It is from the passion for the river that the ASD Eddyline was born in 2001: an outdoor sports center where it is possible to practice and learn the sport of kayaking, and all other river activities, in such a way as to allow everyone to live the River as protagonists, experiencing what we call “The River Experience”.
It was precisely in that year that Mauro’s idea of opening a kayak school met with Federico’s consent and support.
From this sharing comes the desire and conviction to create a School with characteristics that range from attention to methodology and teaching tools, to care for relationships and the value of being together. A Center where it is possible to practice and learn the sport of Kayaking, but also other river activities such as Rafting, Canyoning, Hydrospeed, in such a way as to allow everyone to experience the river as protagonists, experience what we call “The River Experience”. Eddyline was therefore born, an outdoor river sports center with a cutting-edge kayak school in terms of teaching techniques and didactic equipment, and the other river activities that revolve around it like satellite planets, but no less important for this reason. .
In a river there are two types of currents, one (the main one) which descends from upstream towards the valley and one, located behind partially outcropping boulders or in the internal corner of the curves, which goes in the opposite direction going upstream. In the English language this second current area is called “eddy”, and eddyline is the compound word that indicates the dividing line between these two currents. To begin the adventure of practicing a river activity (the “The River Experience”) it is necessary to cross this line in order to pass from the area of relatively calm water (eddy) to the main current that descends towards the valley.
