Edging your Kayak - For Better Control

The Single best way to kick your kayaking game up a level is learning how to use edge control to make your boat perform. It is what separates rec paddlers from more serious paddlers. If you want to get the most out of your boat this is how you do it.

I created a 16 page PDF with hundreds of tips for playing and working in the outdoors! They are called The Guides Way and you can get them here. https://ko-fi.com/adventureotaku/shop
