J Stroke in action

[angeloconti]

Thats not a J Stroke at all its a Rudder Pry - very simple and ineffective if you want to move with some progress.

That's not a J-stroke! That's a stern rudder.

Nope, not a J Stroke. We call that a 'rudder' Very inefficient. This guy needs a lesson from someone who knows canoeing.

[mcturks]

not to mention the sorry excuse for a canoe

[StormBushcraft]

the steering point is at the rear of the canoe, and with a man of his size, its could be better to kneel down e.g to get more balance and flex with the stroke. He sit in the middle of canoe which could make it even more difficult. anyway good attempt, keep on practise.

Sorry, not a J stroke at all.

We've just uploaded ours...have a look and let us know!

That's a Goon Stroke. You need to have your thumb facing down not up.

@wetbivybag

have a look at ours...

[One4adventure]

to be kind "stern pry??"

[LulJam]

thats not really a j stroke

you should have the power face faceing away from the canoe

[jo1744]

An interesting sight, how tiny a canoe can look, but I haven't seen the adevertised J stroke in any part of the video, sorry.

[trinitymike]

That's a goon stroke, NOT a J stroke...

[ludwigxpaiste]

its a lot more efficient if you use the paddle like a rudder instead of a scoop at the end of the stroke
