Catch Your Momentum

Using your momentum to move the boat forward is a way of maximizing your energy efficiency on the water. There are two parts to adding your momentum to the canoe. The first part is bending forward to the reach position until our weight shifts forward to the front part of our feet and feeling the canoe start to move forward. The second part is sitting up while pushing our hips to our heels and feeling our weight shift to our heels, feeling the boat slip out from under our feet which adds to that momentum. In order to develop a sense of how to capture your momentum, I want to describe a practice technique that you can use to feel that momentum. You can use this technique in a canoe or even in an office chair on wheels on a hard surface if you have something like a skateboard or furniture dolly supporting your feet so you don’t tip over.
