How to initiate the bow of your kayak….
15 07 2009
Hi,
A few days back on of the guys from the UKRGB Bren (aka Peakfreak) posted up that there are no videos online that just explain the “double pump” and any that try assume too much previous knowledge from the person looking to learn.
I had being thinking of doing up a few wee how to tutorials but was being a bit lazy about it, I took this as a bit of motivation. I hit a part of the local river two cameras and tripod in hand. Sadly after I had uploaded the footage to my laptop I some lost it all , a fecking disaster so I flew back down to the river with my younger brother Keith “shaky hands” Shanahan and managed to get only 6mins of raw footage before the battery died. I managed to salvage this after all that.
This has kinda inspired me to put a bit of effort in and knock out a few more hoping to improve on the quality.
Stay tuned……

Nice video. It looks clearer to me now than in the past when viewing other videos. I’ll try it tonight in the pool. I’ll let you know when I get it and what helped. I expect it is the tip about leaning to the side and keeping shoulders square with the paddle.
Cheers,
Bob
