Dimitri - Advanced Sea Kayak Manouvers

Posted on Tuesday 20th September, 2016

 

Checkout this video from Dimitri (Northseakayak) showing some advanced sea kayak technique - let's get practising!

"There is more to sea kayaking than just forward paddling. You will enjoy paddling even more when you are fully in control of your boat. You will be able to get closer in and around things when having certain abilities. It’s a lot more fun too. This time we have put some of the most important manoeuvring techniques in one video. It is not a training video, therefor it is to short and it lacks some explanation of the details. But we will let you see what is possible with a sea kayak and a good paddle in your hands. As you can see in our others videos, those techniques are working well in the rougher stuff or in the surf zone. It sure will take some time to master those manoeuvring techniques but it will be worth the while. The video contains footage of some draw strokes, turning a sea kayak, both low and high brace, bow and stern rudder. We filmed from different angles to show you how it’s done. We’ve put a lot of effort and time in this video and we sincerely hope that it may be of use to other paddlers. Paddle safe and take care of each other!"
