Kayaking: Pressure test after technical adjustments

In this video, I perform a white water pressure test after adjusting my techniques to be more compact and effortless. This test is purely for getting feedback in safe conditions.
Pressure testing is vital for safe and fun surf and whiter water sessions later.
Pressure testing is technically not a training session but an exam for awareness combined with trained reflexes.
It's like heavy sparring in boxing, which you may like or dislike or value as important preparation for a real fight. Some do not pressure test their skills, but as I have experienced in doing extreme sports, such as solo seakayaking, knowing your limits and weaknesses might be even more important than relying only on strengths in action. The sea is an unforgiving forceful environment and it doesn't give special treatment to those who have left their vulnerabilities unnoticed.
At least this is my philosophy
