killamch89 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I’m curious if anyone here has tried canoeing or kayaking. How was your experience? Did you paddle on calm lakes, wild rivers, or even the ocean? I’ve been thinking about trying it but wondering how challenging it might be for a beginner. Any tips on equipment or technique for a first-timer? What’s the best part of being out on the water for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted Tuesday at 01:04 AM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 01:04 AM I've been canoeing a few times, mostly on calm lakes. It was peaceful, and I loved being surrounded by nature. As a beginner, I found it pretty easy, but balance can be tricky at first. A good tip I’d offer is to focus on keeping your strokes steady and avoiding jerky movements. Also, make sure your equipment fits you comfortably. 15 hours ago, Knight Barida said: I've not had the time to do it at the moment, but it used to be really fun back in those days when I was in high school and had time to go canoeing.
