@Surfski-TV good point. A leads to B with the seated posture not being addressed then the footplate being adjusted second. I can max out a foot plate at 5ft6in if I sit leaned back enough but I normally have it near the shortest setting with proper positioning.
Awesome explanations. You settled a lot of questions I had and explained how the wording can get misconstrued. I’m studying in Oscar Chalupskis online coaching, and he’s very thorough explaining the forward stroke, but very simple. This video is definitely filling in the gaps and over explaining the process in a good way. Thank you
@chrisbeard9113 the sport is really really complicated! It needs words to convey that for sure. Rowing seems simplistic but that's a rabbit hole 100x deeper than paddling currently and it shouldn't be.
I am interested in more videos about the correct posture with the pelvis, core (hard or soft) and shoulders. Also, the distance of the footpad, as it is not easy to find the right distance to make a good leg drive. Thxx
Nice coverage of common mistakes. As someone who’s just starting to “performance paddle” this helps a lot. I also see that as I paddle I fall into various mistakes over time and self-correcting is key to becoming more technically proficient. For instance, the longer I go, over an hour or more, the more I tend to use a shallower angle. Lower high arm. I can still get good hip rotation, but my “leverages” are not as optimal. When I started in early June, I would only occasionally have passable technique and good hard water feel on each stroke. As I train, I seem to be getting more efficient, faster at lower heart rates. But at some point I will need a coach. What’s your take on that? When is coaching intervention most helpful or most useful for a beginning paddler? I’m able to maintain about 4.5 - 5 mph on sustained runs but want to move to the next level. Am willing to travel your way. Thank you! 😊
@tommyrq180 coaching is useful at any time. In my club we start paddlers day 1 in a boat with coaching and expedite the process. When the person is ready for coaching then it's effective for them!
I know what you are saying mate. For this reason I have been doing been doing 20 X 500m sets with 2 minutes rest so that I am not practicing bad form as I get tired. I think I have been guilty of doing and fixing everything on the video. The spear the fish is my latest mistake😂.
@@SteveHofsaess all athletic motions appear "simple" but become increasingly complex as you try to climb the skill ladder! That's half the fun is learning and improving over time.

Loved this one Robert. Beautifully simple. And I'm guilty of slouching ...
Clear and concise. Thanks,
Great and helpful video, as always! Slouching is sometimes (but not always) due to the footplate being too far away.

You can browse the TH-cam here and search for posture to find the videos. More available at the online school K2NONLINEPADDLESCHOOL.COM
Finally! Two blades but no mention of windmilling 😔 Nonetheless, great video!
@@jasonlarkin8807 that's a good one for episode 2!?
Excellent 🤗
Thanks!

Edit # attempting to fix everything rather.
almost like pedaling a bike,, looks easy but very complex. my problem is I lean back too often

What size of paddle do you use
@xabieraramendi502 in this video I'm using my larger 205cm/760cm blade braca 11
I use a variety of others for different racing and training
