Getting Started approaches paddling form the point of view of a beginner going out on the water for the first time. There is practical advice on where and when to paddle, the clothing and equipment needed for safety and comfort, and how to prepare your body with fitness training and warm-up routines. Next is shown how to get into a kayak and a canoe, how to capsize safely, how to hold the paddle, and the skills needed to manoeuvre and roll the boat.
The next three section of the book look at increasingly difficult types of paddling, and at the techniques, boats, clothing and equipment adapted to suit the demands of the different disciplines.
On to Moving Water looks at the fast and furious sport of white water paddling, while Open Horizons takes to the open water with advice on paddling inland waterways and the sea. Advanced Paddling shows paddling at its most extreme: the exhilarating specialist disciplines, such as play boating and surfing, and the competition scene.
Paddling Around the World looks at opportunities in Europe, the Americas. Australia and New Zealand, Asia and Africa for paddlers who want to travel and explore in their boat. Keeping Safe provides advice for the emergency rescue drills and first aid techniques in case things go wrong.
Illustrated with over 650 informative step-by-step sequences and inspirational colour photographs, this invaluable book is for aspiring paddlers everywhere.
