Increasing the range of motion rather than restricting it can be advantagous. Asian martial arts techniques come to mind for efficient biomechanical energy transfers.
I appreciate your analysis and have never heard anything different other than having hands at eye level and elbow up. I am curious as to your analogy about throwing a baseball. Since we don't push with the top hand I don't understand what the advantage really is
I would take some time and watch some more of these videos if you don't think you should push with that top hand! "When you make it a pushing sport and not a pulling sport you become a 7mph+ guy" - great quote from the podcast with Joe Crnkovich
@@K2NOPS maybe you could point me to one of the videos. I like your series I've just never heard of pushing with the upper hand. Oscar preaches the opposite claiming that you lever the paddle into pushing water toward the surface. I would love to be a 7 mi an hour paddler. I'm stuck at around 6 at the moment.
The 3 parts on preventing power slippage in the surfski goes over it in pretty good detail. Unfortunate to hear that other information isn't as helpful as it's made out to be.
Excellent! Thanks.
Mahalo again!🙌🏽
Excellent analysis, as always! Thank you!
Preach!!!
