Editorial Reviews

Review

Whitewater kayaking and canoeing have come a long way in the last few years: new gear, new techniques, new ways to run the river. To start the novice right off, or to polish whitewater skills already acquired, renowned whitewater paddler and instructor Bruce Lessels has created step-by-step lessons for all essential techniques. He surveys safety issues such as managing risk, dealing with hazards, safety and rescue tools. Equipment choices are surveyed. An introduction to racing is provided along with advanced techniques of playboating, squirt boating, steep creeks, and more. There are over 200 instructional photographs and illustrations. -- Midwest Book Review
