ジェレミー先生が教える フラットウォーター"８つのドリルとテクニック” / Jeremy Riggs "8 FlatWater Drills" Japanese subtitles ver

GoFoil Japan

Jeremy Riggs's eight flat water drills from his weekly sessions, in a version with Japanese subtitles published by GoFoil Japan. The drills build from bouncing the board and catching the blade, through a snappy paddle exit and porpoising with the heel lifting, to combining short strokes with porpoising.

Key points

• 1 Buoyancy bounce: sink the board, brace with the paddle and bounce like on a trampoline 2 Squat and catch: bury the blade while the knee goes forward of the ankle
• 3 One-handed catch: power goes in where your bottom hand reaches the planted blade 4 Snappy exit: turn the bottom hand in and pull out like drawing a sword — recovery twice as fast as the stroke
• 5 Porpoise the board: heel up, knee up and forward like kneeing a ball 6 For stiff heels: keep the back heel off the board and stay on the balls of your feet
• 7 Combine short strokes, snappy exits and porpoising 8 Exaggerate porpoising by lifting the front foot, then the back foot, to build stability
