Description
The Playboater's Handbook II follows up on the bestselling success of the original Handbook with a completely updated look at freestyle kayaking technique. Drawing from the experience and knowledge of the former World Champion freestyle kayaker and instructional guru, Ken Whiting, this master reference includes over twice as many moves as the first edition. Whether you're looking to catch your first wave, or are searching for the secrets to the most advanced play moves like the aerial loop or Tricky Whu, this book will open up the world of freestyle kayaking to every paddler. The Playboater's Handbook II covers the full scope of freestyle kayaking with the help of a number of other elite freestyle paddlers, including Corran Addison, Steve Fisher, and Tyler Curtis.
