5 Freestyle Kayaking Tricks with Dane Jackson

Dane Jackson has earned a worldwide reputation as one of the best freestyle kayakers in the sport — but what is freestyle kayaking? It's not a leisurely paddle down a lazy river, nor is it a thrilling descent through ripping whitewater. It's about doing tricks on a rolling wave, using skills accumulated over years of kayaking to flip and spin maneuvers like nose blunts, McNastys and air screws at will. Now what does THAT mean? Let the man himself break it down for you in this video. _ Experience the world of Red Bull like you have never seen it before. With the best action sports clips on the web and original series, prepare for your "stoke factor" to be at an all time high.

Anyone who would dislike this video is OBVIOUSLY completely ignorant when it comes to freestyle kayaking and the skill it takes to do what Dane is doing. Thanks Red Bull for sponsoring him and the sport!

Hmm, it seems a lot of people find this uninteresting and stupid. Perhaps I can show how this sport's existence makes more sense than it seems:
- Freestyle kayaking developed naturally from getting out of sticky situations, that may occur while whitewater kayaking. It's a great way to (safely) practice manoeuvring and remaining in control in such a situation.
- Heading out for a freestyle session may only take an hour or two, as it can be practiced almost anywhere (flat water works fine).
- No one breaks bones from freestyle kayaking. Do any bit of research and you'll also see that basically no one drowns from freestyle kayaking (I have never heard of it). Reward without risk!
- It doesn't look cool? I think it does, shut up! :P Look up big wave freestyle, or something similar, if this seems a bit underwhelming.

+Peter Griffin He does indeed have legs. I fit into the same size boat as this, and am 188 cm (6 ft 2 in). Pause the video at 0:26, and you'll notice the shape of the front and middle section allow for your knees to bend upwards and spread wide, giving you better stability and control of the kayak.

To everyone dissing this video: go out and take one lesson in kayaking, where they try to teach you how to flip back up when you're upside down in the water. You'll immediately understand why this video features ridiculously challenging feats of kayaking.

+Bradley Skidmore Tricky Woo* has been around for years, phonics monkey around for years. Lunar loop? not sure as I can't find any examples. Jedi flip is just an accident of stopping a loop too early and back looping. It really is quite stagnant IMO.

A ceiling?? Are you aware of the amount of new tricks being thrown in the last 3 years, 5 years, 10 years? The sport is 100% still evolving. If you think their is a ceiling, you have an imagination barrier.

+Troglodytarum I don't know much about the sport but I think wiping out would involve flipping over or something, he lands rightside up every time.

Wiping out when you're surfing a wave means that you lose your spot on the wave and get flushed out

freakyflow33 - 9 years ago
+Andrew Gray Considering he is pretty much the #1 in the sport, your opinion speaks to how little you understand it, so maybe keep it to yourself?


Go out for a day of whitewater kayaking and get back to me with how that works out for you.
