Very good instruction video. Immediately I see all my errors but they are easily correctable...with more practice. :)

There is a lot of grace in her style. She moves like a swan on the lake. I like it!

@busterbrown17 It looks to me to be more of a Play boat.

@skadoodlez I tried tape myself, but found it would always rub off... maybe some athlete tape like @paddleme2 said may help, but I just purchased some $20 paddling gloves and absolutely love them for longer paddles. No more blisters, but I also feel like I get a nicer grip on the paddle (although that last part could just be all in my head).

I use athlete clothe tape on my thumbs and index finger to prevent blisters.

In the time it took you to watch this video, you could have figured out how to forward stroke AND backward stroke by simply trying it yourself!

Awesome, i'll either do kayaking or caving on monday on my school's outdoor education session. Probably kayaking they said.

These are funny... if it goes where its pointed that is straight.. and the carbon thing is a big lever, so you could theoretically push top arm until straight and make the best use of that thing... otherwise you could hold two ping pong paddles and get the same effect...
