Kuti mupite pa kayaking, muyenera kupeza nyanja kapena dziwe lokhala ndi mwayi wopezeka pagulu (zabwino kwambiri kuti mupewe nyanja kapena mitsinje ngati woyambira chifukwa madzi amakhala choppier). Mutha kugwiritsa ntchito mapu olumikizana ndi paddling.com kuti mufufuze malo oyandikira kuti mudziwe zambiri, monga ngati pali ndalama zoyambira komanso ngati pali malo oimikapo magalimoto.

Muyenera kuvala chovala chansalu kapena chowuma ngati madzi otentha ndi 55-59 Fahrenheit, komanso chowuma ngati kutentha kuli pansi pamadigiri 55, malinga ndi The American Kayaking Association.

Ngati ndinu woyamba, mungapeze maphunziro a kayaking opindulitsa musanayambe ulendo wanu woyamba. Maphunzirowa ali ndi alangizi oti akuphunzitseni zofunikira za kayak, monga momwe mungakweretse kayak m'galimoto popanda kuvulaza msana (pro nsonga: kwezani ndi miyendo yanu!), Momwe mungabweretsere kayak kumtunda, ndimomwe mungatulutsire ngati mutayika. mumangodutsa, akutero Hess. Ndipo ngati mukugwiritsa ntchito siketi yopopera (chovala mozungulira momwe mumakhalira chomwe chimalepheretsa madzi kulowa mkati mwa bwatolo) mutha kuphunzira momwe mungatulutsire siketiyo kuti mudzimasule ku kayak mukangodumpha.

Momwe Mungakwerere Kayak

Gwirani chopalasacho m'manja onse awiri ndikuchisiya chili pamwamba pamutu panu ndi zigono zanu zopindika pamakona a digirii 90. Apa ndipamene muyenera kugwira pala, akutero Hess. Zoyala za Kayak zili ndi masamba mbali zonse ziwiri; tsamba lirilonse liri ndi mbali yotukuka ndi mbali ya concave (yotulutsa). Mbali ya concave - yotchedwa "nkhope yamphamvu" - iyenera kuyang'anizana ndi inu nthawi zonse pamene mukupalasa kuti ikupititseni patsogolo, akutero Hess. Mukagwira paddle molondola, m'mphepete mwatali, wowongoka wa paddle blade uyenera kukhala pafupi ndi mlengalenga pamene mbali ya tapered ili pafupi ndi madzi.

Kuti muyambe bwino, ikani kayak yanu pamiyala kapena mchenga wamphepete mwa nyanja pafupi ndi madzi, kenako lowani kayak. Ngati ndi kayak yokhala pamwamba mumangokhala pamwamba pake ndipo ngati ndi kayak yotseguka, mumakhala m'ngalawamo ndi miyendo yanu yotambasula ndikupindika pang'ono. Kamodzi inu muli mutakhala pansi m'ngalawa, kanikizani pansi ndikunyamula bwato lanu kuti mulowetse bwatolo m'madzi.

Tsopano, mwina mukuganiza kuti: Kodi kayaking ndi yosavuta kwa oyamba kumene? Monga masewera ambiri am'madzi, sikumayenda paki (mumachita masewera olimbitsa thupi, zowona!), Koma kupalasa ndikosavuta. Kuti mupite patsogolo, pangani zikwapu zazing'ono zofanana ndi kayak, pafupi ndi bwato, akutero Hess. "Kuti mutembenuke, mutha kuchita zomwe timatcha 'kusesa," akutero. "Inu tenga ngalawayo ndikugunda kwambiri kutali ndi bwato." Mukuyendabe pansi kuchokera kutsogolo kupita kumbuyo — mozungulira kumanja ndikudutsa mbali yakumanzere kumanzere — koma kupangitsa kukokomeza komweko kumanja kwanu kukuthandizani kuti mutembenukire kumanzere. Kuti muime, mudzasinthanso paddle (kuyambira kumbuyo kupita kutsogolo m'madzi).

Chidziwitso: Ndi ayi zonse m'manja. "Mukamayenda patsogolo, ndibwino kuti muziganizira kwambiri za kulimbitsa minofu yanu ndikugwiritsa ntchito kutembenuka kwa thupi lanu kuti muzitha kukwapula," akutero Hess. "Mapewa anu ndi ma biceps azitopa kwambiri ngati simukugwiritsa ntchito mtima wanu." Chifukwa chake ikani maziko anu ndikusinthasintha pang'ono kuti muyambitse sitiroko iliyonse osati kungogwiritsa ntchito mikono ndi mapewa anu kukoka. (Kuti mumve zambiri zolimbitsa thupi, yesani kuyimilira paddleboarding.)

Sh t zimachitika, ndiye kuti nthawi zonse pamakhala mwayi woti mudzaphwanye. Ngati mutero ndipo muli pafupi ndi gombe, mutha kusambira kayak kupita kumtunda kapena wina kuti agwirizane ndi kayak yake (ngati ali ndi lamba wonyamula — paketi ya fanny yotalika ndi chingwe ndi kopanira mkati) ndikuyikoka kugombe chifukwa cha iwe. Ngati simukuyandikira kusambira kupita kumtunda, muyenera "kupulumutsa madzi otseguka," luso loyankhanso bwato pamadzi lomwe muyenera kuphunzira kuchokera kwa wophunzitsa, akutero Hess. Kupulumutsa kwamadzi otseguka kumaphatikizapo kupulumutsidwa komwe kuthandizidwa, komwe kayaker wina amakuthandizani, komanso kudzipulumutsa, komwe kumakhudza kuyendetsa kayak ndikuyendetsa. TL; DR-musayende patali kwambiri ngati simunapulumutse madzi. (Zokhudzana: Epic Water Sports Mudzafuna Kuyesera-ndi Akazi 4 Omwe Amawaphwanya)
