All About Kayaking DVD

Wannabe recreational paddlers now have a new tool to help them understand all about kayaking. This energizing instructional DVD starts a new or interested paddler at the beginning, by providing a basic overview of types of boats and gear, strokes, maneuvers, and safety. All are presented in a manner that demystifies and enlightens.

The target audience is recreational paddlers seeking a short paddle around the local coast, a day on the lake fishing, taking the family, or camping with friends. From kayak day trips to inland tours, easy whitewater riffles to ocean surfing, AAK delivers a broad understanding of the entire spectrum of kayaking. A special section explains some of the best tricks for kayak fishing.

A better and more honest description would have been "An Introduction to Kayaking."

The DVD introduces you to the different types of kayaks & kayaking along with accessories like paddles & safety gear, but doesn't even show how to do something as elemental as rolling a kayak upright. If this is supposed to cover everything about kayaking, it's interesting that they advertise a whole series of DVDs on aspects of kayaking at the end. I didn't appreciate the misrepresentation of this DVD, and would have looked elsewhere for information had I known it was so elementary. It is an expensive advertisement for their other kayaking DVD's. February 16, 2008
