Flat water playboating

Post by adamm » Mon Jun 10, 2013 8:07 am

I would like to learn some flat water tricks. I was wondering if there is anyone in NWA that would like to help a playboat noob out.

OOO has a great instructional video from Jackson kayaks, "The Basics of Playboating". It covers some flatwater play boating.

I have watched some videos on YouTube, my problem is the video is not there in the water to see the mistakes and help me correct them. I tried to teach myself to roll from watching instructional videos. I learned to hand roll months before I could do it with a paddle. It took about 5 min of someone going through the motion with me and I got it.
