Gila Outrigger Canoe Club Paddling Clinic šŸŒ… - Mar 2025
Love seeing the outrigger community growing in the desert! 🌵 I'm also loving all the dragon boat X outrigger crossover. There's so much history behind both sports. Huge mahalo to everyone who came out to work on their outrigger teknique! From change drill, using the force, rock the boat drill, brace drill, touch the water, seat pulls, ladder drill, push and squeeze, and flying the ama, your focus and dedication to improvement was inspiring. šŸ›¶ Remember: patience at the catch, then accelerate through that finish! šŸ’Ŗ It's been wonderful watching the outrigger community in Arizona grow. Each club (both outrigger and dragon boat) have been paving the way to encourage more canoe owners. Whether you're a complete beginner or experienced paddler looking for a new challenge, the outrigger community is incredibly welcoming! Want to level up your OC teknique and bring me out for a clinic? Drop me a DM or check out teklicoaching.com! šŸŽÆ See you on the water! 🌊

Hi Tek, always a pleasure seeing you in AZ! Thanks again for adding that extra session (demand is high, I guess you'll have to come back!) and for those drills. I'm looking forward to incorporating them on my OC1 work. I saw some videos of the later session - flying ama on the OC6! -brace drills FTW!

Swimming is a great complimentary sport: Butterfly stroke for shoulder strength and mobility, Crawl (especially using the Total Immersion method) for rotation, 1000m/2000m for zone 2 conditioning, and 200m/400m IM drills for VO2 max
