Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge
Paddleboarding is a sport that requires skill and strength, and it is very important for beginners to master the correct paddling posture and technique. Here are some tips for paddling for beginners:
Standing position: Stand with your feet parallel to each other, standing in the middle of the paddle board with your feet against the edge of the paddle board. Keep your toes forward, your knees bent, and your back straight. Use your hips to balance, keep your head and shoulders straight and stable, and use your hips to adjust your center of gravity.
Paddle grip position: When sliding on the right side, hold the lower part of the oar with your right hand and the upper part of the paddle with your left hand. The curvature of the paddle head is facing away from itself, and the opposite direction will slip left and right. Keep your arms straight and feel like you're paddling with your body, with your abdominal core strength working more than your arms.
Paddle Movement: When paddling, push the upper handle forward with the upper hand. Insert the paddle into the water and pull it down to the ankle to get out of the water. You can take your time at first, and you don't have to use a lot of effort at the beginning. At the beginning of the row, paddling with a small support will make your strokes more effective and go farther each time.
Keep a straight line: If you want to keep a straight line, take turns on both sides, changing sides every 4-5 times. When you paddle on the other side, don't forget to change the up and down position of your hands.
Cornering Tips: There are many easy ways to turn while paddling. Forward Paddle Control: As the name suggests, you can turn by paddling the paddle all the time on one side. Paddle to the left, turn the paddle board to the right, and the more the paddle is rowed outward, the more you turn. Tail paddling method: You can use the paddle to paddle in the opposite direction on both sides of the tail to adjust the direction.
In conclusion, beginners need to master the correct posture and technique when paddling to gradually improve their paddling level. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to safety and avoid accidents. Only by practicing more Xi and summarizing experience in practice can we better master the skills of paddleboarding.
