Paddling a canoe solo without correction strokes - 1

I have been part of several discussions recently about paddling solo in a straight line without using correction strokes - bow waves, pining the bow, cross strokes have all been mentioned. I figured I would shoot a short set of videos that demonstrate this in a canoe with minimal rocker, the trailing end weighted (trim to back), and heeled to the paddling side. This setup works for doing an inside turn - paddling straight just stops the turn. It is possible, and pretty trivial, to do a weighted 'S' turn from this position by just changing heel. Weighting the leading edge, using a canoe with no rocker, lots of rocker, more/less heel all change - to the point if you are very careful and change canoes you can completed weighted turns in any direction. This is not a 'how-to' video but a demonstration. I am not the best paddler but this, I think, demonstrates what I wanted to show. I am paddling a Bluewater prospector - 16', virtually no rocker. Start around 55 seconds. If you are trying this out there are significant differences between paddling a tandem solo and paddling a solo canoe. I realize that many people will use sit-n-switch or [Minnesota] hut stroke but in a broad canoe paddle Canadian style it is not really practical. I have had lots of comments about pitch strokes, minimal j, unconscious correction, etc.... Just to note that with the canoe heeled this way the canoe turns inside allowing S-turns without paddling. This also means you can paddle without a correction.    • More weighted s-turns - an early morning p...   ,    • Practice - inside weight turn - hull effect.   ,    • Weighted S turn
