Coping with a following sea

Some tips to help you cope with a small swell

  • Stay upright to forwards for balance.
  • Relax and let the boat move around.
  • If you like it as the wave picks up the stern of your boat apply power and enjoy a small surf.
  • If you dont like it as the wave picks you up back paddle a couple of strokes to escape!

The paddler in the video is a bit ridgid and nervous but for her 3rd day out its not bad. She is starting to get to grips with balance and the odd support stroke.
