My name is Xavier and the topic I have chosen to write my blog about is trying to describe the magical experience that is kayaking. Kayaking is like no other sport, it varies a lot, and every different type of kayaking has its own unique experiences. Slalom and River running can be like a game of chess, or painting a beautiful tapestry, one where you are in tune with every stroke. It could easily become like a boxing match when you punch a big hole or struggle against the flow of the water to get your body to the surface.
Surfing is like no other. It’s like riding a bucking bronco or a roaring sports car. One slight mistake like putting your upstream blade in the water or leaning upstream and you’ll be gone so quickly, into what usually feels like a washing machine.
In the end, all aspects of this incredible sport are magical. It is an art form, an extreme sport and a workout all in one. As The Great Donovan once said “it is extremely exciting, the fear and excitement together make for a very fun sport”.
