Eddy Turns Using Arcs

Carving arc shaped paths is the most effective strategy for moving into and out of eddies in a canoe. "Eddy Turns Using Arcs" is the first in a 3 part Eddy Turn series of videos showing the progression of Novice, Intermediate and Advanced eddy turn maneuvers. Look for "Eddy Turns Using Wave Troughs" and "Eddy Turns Using SHArc". Additional resources include "Carving Tandem Eddy Turns Using MITH and for solo canoes "Carving Using 2X4".

This is one of the best instructional videos I have seen. Easily understood explanations, a good analogy with the ball, and fantastic demonstrations. Obviously a lot of planning went into it and the production and editing was superb. Great work!
