| Although the seakayaker had never done anything like this before I have had the opportunity to practice it many times, mostly while goofing around with racing club kids. So, I am not saying anything new, but I would like to re-enforce the importance of practicing all this stuff. Having practiced these kind of things makes the difference between, panic in an out of control situation or being able to take it in stride because you have done it before. | Although the seakayaker had never done anything like this before I have had the opportunity to practice it many times, mostly while goofing around with racing club kids.

| - | Next season at Deep Cove Canoe & Kayak we will certainly be singing this song to all of our regular paddlers who typically become complacent about risks and overconfident in their abilities. Many think that because they paddle 2-3 times per week that they are experienced. The typical scenario for seakayakers and surf ski paddlers is that they start paddling, take a capsize course or try to remount their skis once or twice and then start paddling and then don't practice these skill for many years.\\ | + | Next season at Deep Cove Canoe & Kayak we will certainly be singing this song to all of our regular paddlers who typically become complacent about risks and overconfident in their abilities.
