A well-adjusted kayak can be more comfortable and stable for paddling.
Lots of trips start off with a launch from a gradually sloping shoreline. remind that prevent dragging the hull, especially on sandy, rocky or cement surfaces:
Firstly, using both hands to grasp your paddle and centering your paddle shaft on top of your head.
This is the stroke you do most of the time, so good technique pays dividends:
This is the basic braking stroke. It can also move you backward if your kayak is already stopped.
This is the basic turning stroke. If you do repeated forward strokes on the same side of the boat, you’ll notice that the boat slowly turns the other way.
