suppose to write this yst too... but too tired as usual.. hahah....well i woke up at 7.45 like tat.. den get ready everything... den 8.50 leave house... my partner for last sat she nv come.. haha.. back out liao.. LoL... den on tat day we take single... the kayak is called bandit... its a plastic boat.. very easy to capsize and difficult to control the direction... the tide was sooo low in the morning... so low tat we have to paddle quite far out to practise our strokes...
when we jus start paddling.. wahahhaha.. so funny sia... one whole bunch of us were like turning round and round.. LoL... like the fun fair tat coffee cup & tea pot tat one.. wahahha.. so funny.. LoL... cos this kayak have a quite flat hull den diff to control... but soon we have learnt how to control the kayak liao... ;)
it was more fun den last sat... cos we in single ma.. everything in OUR control... no nid to co-ordinate wif partner... so ma fan.. keke... as usual we practise on our basic strokes... becos on diff kayak liao ma.. must get used to use the strokes on this kayak... this time round dun have alot jellyfish.. haha.. only a few nia.. BUT!! seaweed got aloooooot ar!! cos low tide ma.. haha... den can see 1 patch all green colour one.. like at the field like tat.. haha...
den we learn a new skill after practising the basic strokes.. the skill is stern radder... can use it to steer to the correct direction... and den we went for lunch break... after the break, we went back to the sea den we learn the capsize rescue... this kayak nid 2 rescuer sia... 1 to help the victim and 1 to help balance the boat of the one who help the victim...
den ar.. cos this bandit dun have decklines.. only toggle lines.. den very difficult to get back to the kayak sia... i had a difficulty getting back.. haha... :X i said b4 in my previous blog tat i like to capsize.. but tat was in single salem... now in this bandit.. nah... i dun like to capsize liao.. cos difficult to get back.. :(
oh ya.. my laogong do stunt again for me to see... hahaha.... eh... think tat one is called high brace recovery... his posture like gg to capsize like tat.. but he use the back face of the paddle to push the water den will not capsize one.. this is a skill to counter-act when u r gg to capsize... but we only learn low brace recovery which is taught only in 2-star.. but our instructor teach us this bonus skill 1st.. keke... this skill i learnt b4 liao le.. cos tat time SP sports elective canoeing i go den they got teach.. haha...
jus like tat i've finish my kayaking 1-star course.. and my class all pass and get our certs... =D *happy* dunno when den got time to go back for my 2-star.. hehez...
