Precautions For Kayaks

Precautions For Kayaks

First of all, please develop the habit of wearing a life jacket. If it is a team activity, all team members must wear life jackets.

Although the safety factor of the platform boat is relatively large, try to avoid dangerous actions such as standing and fighting to avoid capsizing.

To measure the best propeller pitch, you can lift the propeller to the top of your head with both hands, with the elbow joint at a 90-degree angle, and the distance between your hands is the best propeller pitch. The width of the hand-held oar is about shoulder-width apart, and the right strokes first. When the hand oar is down, the upper body naturally turns to the right. The left arm is stretched to approximately shoulder height and stretched to the right over the hull. When surfacing, the body naturally rotates to the left, then the left oar enters the water, and the right oar moves across the hull to the left, using the foot pedal to increase the strength (right oar, right foot hard). Over shoulder height, reverse stroke is just the opposite. Do not swing your body up and down, you should swing parallel, try to keep the center of gravity stable. Although platform boats have no special requirements on the age of participants, they are easier to maneuver and not easy to capsize than ocean-going boats.

Kayaking is an outdoor sport. On sunny days in summer, reflections on the water surface are strong, which can damage the skin. It is best to apply sunscreen in advance and prepare sunscreen products.

When the external wind reaches level 3 or 4, the boat will generally not capsize and will not affect the rowing, but it is more laborious. If you encounter a thunderstorm during the rowing process, you should row to the shore as soon as possible to avoid becoming the highest point on the water surface and avoid being struck by lightning.
