 If your balance paradigm relies on reaction, then you are essentially juggling. This works fine with many scenarios like flat water or even medium size downwind… but truly messy, rough water adds many more balls moving in many different directions. The brain can only do so much, and eventually you drop a ball and in you go. Not good.\\ If your balance paradigm relies on reaction, then you are essentially juggling.

-If however your balance paradigm is based on connection, then you are using a premeditated skill that mitigates the need to react to what the water is doing. You paddle on your own terms, despite what the water is doing. It makes a world of difference in rough water.+If however your balance paradigm is based on connection, then you are using a premeditated skill that mitigates the need to react to what the water is doing.

Glassy water, even without large wave action, can also throw many paddler'​s depth perception off and incline them toward reactive paddling//)
