Customer Reviews
Next best thing to an EJ clinic
If you can't take an EJ clinic, this is the next best thing. This book discards much of the "old school" of kayaking which was appropriate for older, longer boats, and replaces it with newer, smarter techniques appropriate for today's fast-turning playboats. Eric clearly understands the physics of kayaking, and communicates this to his readers in a concise, easily understandable style. This book is a wealth of information in a small package.
Lots to try
Its a compact list of good, progressive exercises, mainly for flat water. Master them all and your white water kayaking will be transformed.
