- Master the canoe and learn how to paddle a canoe in this video on how to canoe for beginners. This video is focused on how to choose a canoe paddle and the top ten canoe paddling strokes.
In this video I share some of the skills and experience I've gained over the past 40 years as a canoe tripper and cedar strip canoe builder.
This is the second part of the How to Canoe series, In this video I provide information and demonstrate how to load and enter a canoe, canoe safety how to choose a canoe paddle and how to paddle a canoe. This video is intended for new paddlers but I hope that experienced canoeists will equally enjoy it.
To make the viewing experience better, I've included time chapters for each topic. You can find these below.

I live in the desert and don't have access to any kind of bodies of water, but some day hope to have a tiny cabin in the middle of nowhere, where I can do things like this. So I love your videos, they're peaceful and educational. Looking forward to seeing more on your little cabin on wheels!
Thank you
What a simple way of explaining the different strokes. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Great 2nd parter. Thank you
Another well presented video. Than you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Jason -- Your super well-done videos bring back such great memories of canoe tripping on the French River as a young Boy Scout several years (ok, decades...) ago! That trip was by far the best wilderness experience of my life, and your videos make me yearn to get back into a canoe and head north to the beautiful Canadian wilderness. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge! Love the drone shots, BTW.
Tremendous job. Best canoe video I have watched so far. Keep em coming J!
-Nick 😃👍
Thanks Nick
thumps up jason,a nice and very infomativ video thank you
Great video Jason,thanks for sharing.
Well done, very informative videos Jason!
Awesome thank you!
Great video Jason,Keep em coming.Thank you.
Thanks for watching
I had a chuckle over the Ottawa-Toronto thing. Picked up on it the way you looked when you said it, but I happen to know the buildings . Good one and good fun.😊
Hi Jason,
These two videos were the best explained instructions I have seen on UA-cam so far. Excellent work! Would love some more and advanced instruction videos. Anyway I subscribed already! Thanks a lot, Miguel
Such an amazing intro to the new paddler! Thank you! Can you touch on paddling strategies for wind and currents?
I really really like this tutorial!! Thank you so much. The two black rubber rings on your kayak paddle are to keep some of the water from dripping on ya. Thank you again. NQU
Well explained Jason, great series !
Thank you
Really helpful series, Jason. Thank You. 👍🙂🚣♂️
Great video! Thanks :-)
Thanks bud.
You bet
Enjoyed your video. Great tips and advice.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent series Jason, I think there are a lot of new paddlers out there this year👍
Thanks
Hi Jason! Thank you for this video, my husband and I just got a canoe and we are excited, he has more experience than me, and I found this gem! Wujuu
That is awesome! Be patient with each other and enjoy the time together. Good luck
Jason,
My 30 year old son and I tandem canoe on the Ghost River Section of the Wolf River in Tennessee. Two thirds of the 8 mile trip is slowly flowing river with obstacles to negotiate (fallen trees, low hanging branches, and bald cypress knees). One third of the trip is Spirit Lake that meanders through a bald cypress dotted lake.
I want to thank you for explaining that the goon stroke is inefficient. As he has gained experience, I let him take over the stern position. I can distinctly feel the back stoke effect of the goon stroke from the bow position. I have been trying to explain the benefits of the J stroke to him and appreciate your excellent explanation and demonstration.
Thank you for this video.
Thank you. Glad it was useful.
Great videos Jason, thank you! I don't claim to be a master of canoe paddle strokes, but I learned the basic strokes growing up with Boy Scouts & YMCA camps, etc. I know it sounds petty, but it drives me crazy here on UA-cam seeing so many videos with paddlers that I guess never learned any other strokes but the simple forward stroke. The old "two strokes, switch sides, two strokes, switch sides ... repeat"... their paddle spending more time in the air switching sides, than in the water. Oh well ...
Good stuff! Thanks
I thought that too but then I read somewhere that it is a good technique for when it is windy. Maybe Jason can chime in.
Thank you for the video ! Very useful. Can I ask you where do you paddle in this video in the beginning? Beautiful place
love you to teach me to canoe :)
Love your canoeing videos !! So is it true the longer the tandem canoe/kayak paddle say like the 250 cm length would keep less water spray out of your boat/canoe for I would prefer paddling on both sides of the canoe and while sitting more in an upright square position ?
No, you don't need a longer paddle, spray is just part of the game. It's a water sport after all. Paddles are like shoes, best to get one that fits.
Great job and information. Nicely done.🇨🇦👍
Great video, thanks for creating it. I am interested in your "favorite" paddle. What is the model name for that paddle?
Thank you. It is a Bending Branches paddle, check them out on their website
Thanks for making this essential series, please keep sharing the wisdom... By the way, do you ever use a splash deck on your canoes, and what do you think about it?
You're welcome.
No, I never use a splash deck. I think they're a good addition for a specific use but in most cases aren't needed.
Besides using cedar and epoxy in the construction would using teak for the gunwales twarrts and seats etc ease the demands of maintenance a little, or at least be a little more forgiving in this term?
No, not really. With a strip canoe you need to do maintenance every year or two by doing a light sand and revarnish. At that time you do the entire boat anyway.
May I know what is the background guitar solo music?
I am in a conoe and watching it..
Use a kayak paddle!
very well explained nice filming, I will be watching this one many times. Thanks Jason big thumps up/Subscribed.
Thank you
Hi Jason could I ask what make of shell jacket you use please
NRS Hide Tide
who makes that jacket my man?
It's in Canada and I'm in Mexico at the moment so I can't check. I think it's been mentioned in the comments of either this video or in Part One. I remember answering a similar comment last year.
@@TrailguidePictures lol Dont blame you for not being in Canada!
😳😕don’t know how to comment on your paddle strokes
Keep learning and then maybe we can have a discussion
