This will rank as one of the most basic questions (i.e. dumbest) Im going to have to ask:
How do you use your torso/abs to paddle? Do I need to lean forward and pull back with my body (with a little left and right lean in there)? Thats what I conceive when I read to paddle with your torso but I wonder if having your body moving around makes you less stable (at least at my skill level) and more prone to flips.
Im a new boater and Im already having a shoulder problem, so I want to keep practicing correct paddle strokes.
Sorry to take your time on such a basic thing.
I really have a hard time keeping my boat from veering, and I need to learn an aggressive paddle stroke, but my bad habits get in the way (and now the tenderness in the shoulder is).
