Canoe freestyling

submitted by lavoll

1 decade 3 years 7 months ago

American Freestyle canoeing is the art of paddling a canoe on flat water with perfect control of its movements. The canoe is usually leaned over to the side to help the boat turn sharply and efficiently and paddle strokes are taken on either side of the canoe depending on the individual move. Balance, paddle placement and turn initiation are a few keys to this control. Since the movements seem dance-like, some practice this art timed to music, which is the ultimate in control.

If I were fishing, I would be pissed right off. I admit I laughed at this, I think its comedy more than anything.

So I was waiting for a kick flip or an ollie...but all I got was 180's

I absolutely had no idea.

Would someone please, please do a video mashup of this with Deliverance.

How bored do you have to be to clap for something like this?

As absurd as this is and comes off as... I have to admit I have paddled enough canoes to be more than a little impressed at the skill this silliness requires. Not my thing, but, more power to 'em if they enjoy it and are appreciated for it.

"oh boy, he turned!!!" - Applause!!!
