Cut -Away Kayak Paddling Video

Notice that if you strive for maximum rotation of your shoulders,
your legs will move up and down to help the body rotate further.

****Go here to watch a video demonstration: *****

You can add even more power to your stroke by using your legs and hips.

For a stroke on the right, start with your right knee slightly bent and as you pull through the water, extend/straighten this leg.
- This pivots the right hip back in the seat and this hip rotation multiplies the rotation you can get with your shoulders.
