Inflatable Kayak Blog

I was out paddling my Sea Eagle 330 Inflatable Kayak after I wrote my previous paddling tip that dealt with “course corrections’ and turning, and I got to thinking about something I should add to it. Remember to rotate your torso. When your torso is rotating instead of strictly using your arms and shoulders, your paddling experience will be much improved. Putting some rotation into your torso makes you use the larger muscles in your back, rather than the relatively smaller ones in your arms and you will be able to paddle for a longer time before feeling any fatigue. Your strokes will be more powerful with less effort. It also helps you to exercise more of your body.
