Jenny Murdie practices the Eskimo rescue with help from Justin Mackay, in the Ohakune Swimming Pool last week. First (at left) she turns turtle; after banging the sides of her kayak to summon help, Justin butts her boat, she grabs his boat's nose and uses it to rescue herself. 11 Ruapehu College pupils were practising their kayak skills as part of the school's elective programme, aiming to perfect the necessary skills to embark on a white water expedition down the Rangitikei River.
