This new book takes the mystery out of moves I thought were WAY above me. THANK YOU KEN WHITING!

No one else besides Whiting has been able to disect, interpret, and present kayaking in such an informative and easy-to-understand way. It might sound melodramatic to say that this book changed my life, but it did. And if you're life's passion is playboating, your perception of paddling--after you read this book--will change forever.

I bought the Ken Whiting "Playboater's Handbook II" book together with his "Playboating with Ken Whiting" video. Individually, each contains excellent explanations and visual illustrations. Together they constitute the clearest and most comprehensive whitewater kayak control training material I have found.

I lucked into this one--got it from a friend who had a few copies from the Ottawa River Rodeo. All I can say, after getting half way through, is that I've been out in my boat more than my skis. I can't seem to stay out of the water. As we say in Washington, "our ski team has a kayaking problem."

It's tough when you can boat all year to put the booties away...Ken's new book definitely feeds the addiction. Keep up the good work Mr. Whiting, er, uh Sir Whiting. Washington thanks you.
