Try playboating, which brings challenge, athleticism, water sports, and pure fun together. Whether you're looking to catch your first wave or are searching for the secrets to the most advanced play--moves like the aerial loop or Tricky Whu--this fun reference guide will open up the world of freestyle kayaking to every paddler.
