USK In Depth instructional Video Series Volumes 3, "Beyond the Cockpit"

86 minutes. Many paddlers don't feel confident edging or leaning their kayaks. A number of kayakers perform all of their maneuvers with their bodies over their cockpit. However, to get the most out of your kayak you need to reach out over the water with your paddle and your body. Spend an hour with world renowned kayak instructor Derek C. Hutchinson as he shares his many years of experience through demonstrations, techniques, and maneuvers that will have you dancing with your kayak. In addition, the skills demonstrated are very useful in rough water conditions. As a special treat, Derek shares some humorous stories at the stern end of the video. If you enjoyed Derek's many books you will love him on video.

The University of Sea Kayaking was founded by Wayne Horodowich. The mission of USK is to promote sea kayaking education. Our "In Depth" Instructional video series is just one of the ways of accomplishing our goal.
