Develop draw strokes to efficiently move sideways

Sea kayaks are designed to go straight efficiently so they are inherently not very good at moving sideways.  This makes it even more important to have an efficient draw stroke.  We cover the 3 main strokes and break them down into their key component parts and there are lots of exercises to try out on the water. We use slow motion, underwater and drone footage to clearly demonstrate the skills required.

Great videos that really shows all the aspects of different strokes and skills. would recommend it for both novice kayakers as well as experienced paddlers. Lots of useful tips for me as a coach too.

Kevin, UK

This course is brilliant - very well put together with high definition footage and easy to understand descriptions of techniques. I have used much of the course material on the water and in theory and it is faultless. I just keep going over and over and it never gets old. Great job guys - I thoroughly recommend to beginner, intermediate and enthusiasts alike - great stuff😎

Lee, USA

Videos are brilliantly shot, simple to follow. Love the use of multiple angles, really helps to understand the full picture of a movement. Great resource, amazing!
