Written by Gary Backlund Paul Grey. Published by Harbour Publishing, 2004. Description: |
| It's fun, good exercise, a great way to get close to nature and
easy to learn - no wonder kayaking is one of the fastest-growing sports in the
world. But the new enthusiast faces a daunting array of questions and choices.
What kind of kayak is right for me, how big should it be and how much will it
cost? What do I wear? What kind of food do I bring? And just how do I stay
right side up, anyway? Easykayaking Basics answers these questions and
many more. Friendly and accessible, this handy reference is essential for anyone who wants to learn the fundamentals of this sport, from those just starting out to those comfortable riding the currents. From craft selection to paddling technique to navigation to safety gear, veteran kayakers Gary Backlund and Paul Grey offer advice and share secrets drawn from decades of experience and hundreds of expeditions. They combine clear, concise instruction with warm and humorous accounts of their own paddling adventures. Photographs and line drawings illustrate every aspect of the sport. |
