Produktbeschreibung
Sea Kayaking Illustrated offers serious how-to information in an entertaining and lively fashion to sea kayakers of all levels. This illustrated approach to instruction provides an alternative choice to the many would-be kayakers who, whether from disposition or lack of time for reading, shy away from our successful but more text-heavy sea kayak instruction books. Illustrated guides have long been backlist staples for other publishers in whitewater kayaking, mountain biking, and other related sports ample proof that for some learners, a picture is worth a thousand words. Sea Kayaking Illustrated covers the entire sea kayaking continuum, from boats, gear, transportation, advanced paddling techniques, navigation, venturing out with children, safety, and weather. The advice and illustrations combine in an eminently palatable format that will appeal both to curious beginners and seasoned veterans. Each of the book s deceptively casual illustrations actually concentrates a great deal of information in quickly recoverable form. Developed by the author over years of paddling and instruction, this information includes knots, proper techniques for fine-tuning a draw stroke and negotiating a surf zone, reading weather signs, rescuing yourself or your companions, navigating, paddling in wind and waves, setting up camp, and much more.Sea Kayaking Illustrated will broaden our growing and productive list of paddlesports titles by offering clear, ingenious, easily digested tips that readers can get to quickly. There is no book like this available for sea kayakers. John Robison is an ACA-certified coastal kayak, whitewater kayak, and whitewater canoe instructor who understands what kayakers want. His illustrations have appeared in Orion Afield and other magazines.
