Playboaters Handbook II

The Playboater's Handbook II follows up on the best-selling success of the original handbook, with a complete look at freestyle kayaking technique in a large, full colour format. Written by World Champion kayaker and instructional guru, Ken Whiting, this second edition also features segments by a variety of other elite freestyle paddlers, including 2001 World Freestyle Champion Eric Jackson, Corran Addison, Steve Fisher and Tyler Curtis. The book covers the full scope of freestyle kayaking technique, from the fundamental skill sets and 'catching your first wave', to the latest and most advanced moves like the aerial loop and Tricky Wu.

With over 500 gorgeous, full color photos to support the cutting edge instruction, and with well over 50% of the book being completely new material, The Playboater's Handbook II will be a must-have for both those who did and did not take advantage of the first edition.
