Ultimate Guide to Sea Kayaking (DVD)

Combines top-notch instruction with unmatched cinematography. Four parts take novice paddlers through a comprehensive paddling course with sections on basics, essential strokes, techniques, safety and rescue, advanced topics such as dealing with surf, and more.

Heliconia structured this DVD as a complete sea kayaking course in four parts, pairing step-by-step instruction with polished on-water filming. New paddlers can work through it in order, from first strokes to safety and rescue practice and on to more demanding topics such as paddling in surf.

Watching the techniques demonstrated in real conditions helps them stick, and the chapter format makes it easy to return to a single skill before an outing. It suits beginners, returning paddlers and instructors who want a teaching companion.
