    Always enter the water at a right angle to the coast so that you can meet the waves head on (if you enter the water parallel to the coast, you may capsize).

    Carry the kayak from the beach until it floats (neither too deep nor too shallow).

    Sit down on the back of the seat and the coaming while keeping your weight mainly on your feet throughout.

    Pull your legs in first and then slide your bottom into the seat. While sitting, lift your spray skirt to avoid inadvertently sitting on it.

    Once you are sitting in the boat, the easiest way to fasten it is to begin at the back of the coaming and move forwards on both sides at the same time.

    The spray skirt is strongly recommended when using the kayak sit in.

    The spray skirt should be worn under your jacket and your life jacket.

    Do the same circular movement as for a turn, that is a circular motion moving your paddle as far away from the side of the kayak as possible (arm stretched out).

    Then do the same circular movement backwards, that is, on the other side starting at the back moving forwards, submerge your paddle as far back as possible by turning your upper body and make a circular motion pushing your paddle as far away from the side of the kayak as possible.

    Repeat this movement several times alternating from side to side until you complete your U-turn.

    The movement is the same as above, the kayak paddler at the front paddles from the front backwards and the kayak paddler at the back paddles from the back forwards.

    Learning to snorkel

    145 vues

    There is no need to go out far, dive down deep or have sophisticated equipment to enjoy the seabed as snorkelling is great for exploring, having fun with others and forming some great memories.



    Before going out snorkelling for the first time, it is advisable to get acquainted with your equipment.

    It only requires a few simple steps: start putting your mask on, looking under water and adjusting it if necessary. Then, get used to breathing through the snorkel. Should any water get inside, just empty it by blowing hard into the snorkel.

    Once you are in the water, avoid touching anything with your hands as well as your fins in order to protect the flora and fauna.

    Kayak sit on top: Getting back in, when in deep water

    902 vues

    Your kayak has capsized and you are in the water; if needed, you will have to right your kayak. There are 2 ways to do this:

    - either push upwards on the side of the kayak

    - or pull yourself up onto the upturned hull and pull on the other side of the kayak.

    With your paddle in your hand, put your elbows on the side of the kayak with your body lying on the water as horizontally as you can.

    At a right angle to the kayak, pull yourself up using your arms and legs, pushing off the water.

    Start by stabilising your position by balancing the weight of your body. Once you are stable and balanced on your kayak, you can sit and then position your legs (do not try to get into the kayak legs first).



    In a 2-person kayak:

    Same method as before: the 2 kayak paddlers must not get in at the same time. While the person at the front gets in, the other person holds the craft. As the 2nd paddler gets in, the other paddler who is already seated stabilises the boat using his paddle.

    Kayak sit on top: Moving forwards

    Using the "fixed right hand grip & loose left hand grip" method (see "Holding the paddle"). Submerge the paddle blade almost vertically in the water close to the boat far ahead of you. Then pull on the paddle sweeping it along the side of the kayak and withdraw it when it is level with your hips (no need to go any further as this will unbalance you)
     
    Begin the movement by turning your upper body on the side on which you are paddling.
    Indeed, paddling does not involve just the arms, rather a coordinated movement involving the arms, trunk and legs. In order to support your lower body, press the foot on the side on which you are paddling, against the footrest.
    Keep your back straight and your upper body leaning slightly forward throughout the movement.
    The power must come from the trunk and not the arms.

    Capsizing in a kayak sit in is not inevitable, nor is it necessarily dangerous (even when you do not know how to do a kayak roll).

    When you capsize, above all, do not panic: unhook your spray skirt at the front by pulling on the spray skirt tab and get out of the boat by calmly pushing yourself out with your arms and legs.

    Once you are out of the kayak, remember to keep your paddle and kayak close at hand (losing them at sea will be problematic...)

    The concave side of the paddle blade (power side) must be facing towards you. Most paddles are asymmetrical with the asymmetrical side of the blade (tapered side) pointing towards the bottom.

    The recommended distance between the hands is approximately the distance between your elbows.To check whether your hands are properly placed on the paddle, hold your paddle in the air forming a right angle with your elbows.

    Then, when paddling: The right arm is the control arm. This means that the right hand holds the paddle firmly and does not allow the paddle to twist in the hand when moving. Controlling the angle of the blade is done by turning the right wrist. The right hand grip is fixed and does not move while the paddling slips through the left hand

    Kayak sit in: Emptying your kayak and getting back in with the help of another person

    443 vues

    It is advisable to practise kayaking as a group. Consequently, should you capsize and fall in the water, you can count on the assistance of your partner.

    The kayak paddler in the water takes both paddles and hangs onto the front of the kayak swimming as vertically as possible to stabilise the kayak.

    At the same time, the kayak paddler pulls the upturned kayak onto his own (at a right angle) in order to empty it.

    Then, both 2 kayaks are positioned parallel to each other and the kayak paddler sitting in his boat holds both paddles and stabilises both kayaks.

    At the same time, the other kayak paddler climbs back into his kayak using both kayaks for support (holding his hands at the centre of the kayaks so that they do not capsize).

    Then put the spray skirt back on.

    Kayak sit in: Emptying your Kayak by yourself and getting back in using a paddle float

    938 vues

    Although it is not advisable to go out alone, this is a technique for emptying your kayak and getting back in alone using a paddle float.

    Begin by capsizing your kayak, then fasten the paddle float to your paddle and blow it up fully.

    It will serve as an outrigger so that you can climb back in your kayak.

    To do this, place the paddle at a right angle to the kayak with the blade that does not have the float positioned behind the coaming.

    Grab the paddle and coaming with one hand and put your arm over the shaft of the paddle. Hook your other arm onto the life line on the other side or on the edge of the coaming.

    Lift yourself up by pushing on your arms and hooking your leg onto the paddle shaft near to the float.

    Slide one leg into the kayak followed by the 2nd, and then swing yourself in to the seated position.

    Then, simply empty the kayak using a hand pump and/or a sponge and replace the spray skirt.

    Bodyboard positioning

    299 vues

    The waist should be lying on the tail of the bodyboard.

    Use your elbows to upper your body upwards.

    Place your hands on the nose of the board (the Tribord boards are shaped to give you a good handhold).

    The feet and legs should be in the water with the bodyboard held flat.

    You should be looking far ahead of you.

    To move along the side of the wave, grab the edge of the board (rail) with the hand on the side furthest from where you want to turn and lean over to the side by pressing on the inside elbow

    E.g.: to turn right, the right hand should be in position at the front of the board and the left hand grabs the left rail and you lean right by pressing down on the right elbow .

    The position on a surfboard

    68 vues

    Put your feet on the tail of the board.

    The navel should be at the centre of the board.

    Your ribs and thighs touch the board.

    The shoulders are held high, the upper body is upright and the lower back is contracted.

    You should be looking upwards and not towards the board's nose.

    The position will vary slightly depending on your size and the board.

    The most important thing is to find a balanced position (too far forward = the nose will dive into the water, too far back = you'll slow yourself down).

    The flatter the board is, the better it will glide (tips: keep your shoulders high).

    Bodyboarding for the first time

    218 vues

    As soon as you have got used to the position, try out some small waves near to the shore (the white water).

    As the wave comes up behind you, kick with your fins to pick up speed and allow yourself to glide to the water's edge.

    In order to make your first turns, grab the edge of the board (the rail) with the hand furthest from where you want to turn and lean over to the side.



    E.g.: to turn right, the right hand should be in position at the front of the board and the left hand grabs the left rail and you lean right by pressing down on the right elbow

    To pick up speed at the start, ask someone to help you by pushing you in the wave.

    First surfing experience

    90 vues

    As soon as you have got used to the position, you can try surfing in some small waves near to the shore (white water).

    Let yourself glide to the shore, keeping your balance and not losing speed (without trying to pop up for the moment).

    The hands should be laid flat in front of you. In order to feel the balance and the way the board moves, you can stick your arms out like a plane.

    To gain speed at the start, ask someone to help by giving you a push in the wave.

    Accelerating on a bodyboard

    256 vues
    As with all surf sports, the acceleration is a crucial part of bodyboarding. It allows you to surf fast waves and execute more complicated moves, or even aerial moves.
    To generate speed, start by moving your body towards the front of the board.
    Then, by alternately moving the weight of the body towards the front as you descend (this has the effect of pressing down on the front of the board) and moving the weight of the body towards the back as you ascend (this has the effect of lightening the board), you will create a wave motion that will generate speed.

    The belly spin on a bodyboard

    209 vues
    This move is a 360° turn that turns towards the interior of the wave.
    To do this, you need to move your body forwards on the board with your hips practically in the middle of the board and you feet raised to avoid any friction.
    Then, push the front inside corner of the board down while throwing your hips around to begin the rotation.
    The board revolves around the corner of the board on which you are leaning.
    Cross your legs to speed up the rotation.
    Put all you weight at the centre of the board.
    To stop the rotation, just put your fins back in the water.
    Anticipate where you are going, keeping your eyes on the movement.

    The cut back on a bodyboard

    148 vues
    The cut back is a basic move on a bodyboard.
    It allows the bodyboarder to cut back to the crest of the wave, where the energy and hence the speed available to the bodyboarder is highest.
    To make this move, the user must go up towards the top of the wave before completing an S-shaped turn. This involves successively pressing down on the inner and then the outer rail before again pressing down on the inner rail. During the turns the body does not move, there is just a transfer of body weight. Once you are back in the wave's power centre, begin a counter-turn to turn back towards the direction in which the wave is moving.
    A very important aspect throughout the entire move is where you are looking as your eyes should be anticipating your movements, watching the part of the wave that you want to reach.

    "El rollo" on a bodyboard

    278 vues
    El rollo is an aerial move where you use the lip and the trough of the wave to do a spin.
    Keep your eye on the lip of the wave and then as you go up towards the lip with the wave breaking, flip over by thrusting your head backwards as you take off from the board.
    At this point, hold the board tight against you in order to turn and land on the lower part of the wave.
    Stretch out your arms when landing and cushion the shock by bending your arms.

    The duck dive with a bodyboard

    354 vues
    The duck dive allows you to pass under the wave without going backwards. In a single move, you need to dive at the right moment, neither too soon (you will come back up to the surface before the wave arrives) nor too late (the duck dive will be inefficient and you will be pushed backwards) about 2 m away from the crest of the wave. The duck dive can be broken down into 3 successive phases.
     
    The board must be held by the rails (= the edge) at chest level.
    1 - Push the board under the water by straightening your arms and then
    2 - put your knee on the tail and hold your bottom high with the other foot stretched out to balance yourself out of the water. Push the board down as deeply as possible with your knee to
    3 - lie down again on the board.
     
    Point the nose of the board upwards in order to rise back up to the surface.
    Paddle faster as soon as you are back on the surface.

    2 - Push on the tail with your foot and hold your bottom high with the other foot stretched out to balance yourself out of the water. Push the board down as deeply as possible with your leg and foot.



    3 - Once the board is under water, point the nose of the board upwards in order to rise back up to the surface.

    Move your hands towards the nose and hold the board against you so that it pulls you to the surface.

    Choosing your front foot when surfing

    61 vues

    Just as one can be left or right handed, surfers have a favourite pivot foot.



    If the surfer puts his right foot at the front of the board, he is said to have a "Goofy" foot position. If, on the other hand, the front foot is the left foot, the surfer is said to have a "Regular" foot position.



    In order to find out your front foot, pop up straight with your feet together and your eyes closed. Relax your body. Ask someone to push you firmly in the back so that you fall over forwards. The leg that you instinctively move forwards to avoid falling is your front foot!

    Kicking and paddling on a bodyboard

    192 vues

    To move around in the water, use your hands and arms, trying to keep the bodyboard flat at all times to avoid losing speed.



    Starting in the basic position, try the following:

    - Kick with your feet well under the water

    - Paddle with your arms, reaching as far forwards as possible and sweep your arms back underneath the board. Your movement will be more efficient if you raise your upper body

    - Kick and paddle at the same time

    - To save energy, alternate between the 3.

    Paddling on a surfboard

    261 vues

    Starting with the basic position, stretch your arm out as far as possible in front and sweep it back under the board, one arm after the other.

    The arm movement should be long and smooth (avoid swinging your arms around too quickly).



    Hold your fingers slightly apart with the shoulders raised to improve your reach, while looking far away ahead of you.

    You should be looking up and not at the nose of the board.

    Entering the water with a bodyboard

    112 vues

    Before entering the water, attach the leash arm and put on the fins and secure them with the leashes to prevent them getting lost in the event of a "wipe out".



    Move out into the water until the water is up to the middle of your thighs and then lie down on the board and kick with your fins.



    When wearing fins in the water, it is much easier to walk backwards than forwards.

    Enter the water

    103 vues

    You must always attach the leash to your back foot before entering the water.

    The connection between the leash and the cuff should always point outwards to avoid hindering your movements when walking on the sand or during the take off.

    Advance into the water until you are waist deep and then lie down on the board and paddle.

    As a wave or the white water approaches, you must avoid it in order not to be pushed backwards away from the surfing zone.

    You can do a "turtle roll" or a duck dive (see next video). Do not let go of your board to avoid hitting other surfers who may be behind you.

    Similarly, do not paddle behind other surfers to avoid getting hit if the surfer loses his board during his duck dive.

    Warm up before surfing

    57 vues

    As before any sport activity, it is important to warm up to avoid injury and feel good.

    A short run on the beach will activate your cardio respiratory system.

    The muscles and joints that will be required most during practice (shoulders, nape, lower back, ankles and knees) must then be warmed up.

    Each warm-up and stretch exercise must last at least 20 seconds to be effective.

    You should begin either from the upper body working downwards, or from the feet working gradually upwards.

    The surfing take off

    298 vues

    Once you have learnt the position on the board and accomplished your first surfing experience, you need to learn the take off.



    Starting in the surfing position, you have to raise your buttocks by pushing off with your arms and toes.

    Supporting yourself with your hands, push off with your back foot and pull your front foot in between your arms.

    Your back foot should be under your bottom, pointing at a right angle to the centre line.

    Push off with your legs and stand up while keeping your ankles and knees bent.



    Point your head and look towards where you want to go.

    Do not hold on to the rails, as this will slow the board down considerably.

    Lay your hands down on the board.

    Lift yourself up, as smoothly as you can to avoid any sudden movements that could cause you to lose your balance.

    Waxing a bodyboard

    131 vues

    The wax prevents you from slipping on the board. It must be applied regularly over the parts on the board that you come into contact with.

    It is applied by rubbing the wax to the areas where you will be placing your hands, arms and elbows.

    The wax prevents you from slipping on the board.

    Wax must be regularly applied to the deck of the board.

    It is applied to the surfboard deck, particularly in the areas where you will be putting your feet.

    You need to build up a 1 mm-layer of wax by rubbing it on the board in a circular motion.
