Descrição
Kayaking is great — except when it isn't. Carrying a heavy boat, awkward entries and exits, fear of flipping, uncomfortable gear, battling the wind... these things are real, and they stop a lot of people from enjoying paddling as much as they should.
The good news is that most of these problems are fixable — sometimes with a small gear change, sometimes with a tweak in technique, and sometimes just by knowing what to avoid.
In this video, I break down the most common kayaking frustrations and give you practical, honest fixes for each one.
