How to Get on your Bow by Tyce Aldrich

The First step to learning to balance on the bow of your boat is how to sit. The correct way to sit is to sit up straight, not too far forward or too far back. Over doing one or the other will completely throw you off balance. The next step is making sure you know how to double pump. You learn to double pump by getting as far onto one edge as you can without falling over and then start to rock back and forth separating your upper and lower body as you get better. After you get good at double pumping you're now going to learn to twist your body up and plant your paddle. You do this first by sitting in your boat and just twisting your upper body side to side. Once you're comfortable with it, try pushing your paddle down into the water. After that you're ready to try putting all the steps together. Do one double pump lifting your bow and feet towards the sky then snap down your paddle well twisting your body. After that shove your feet down and unwind yourself pushing the paddle even further down. Then boom you've gotten on your bow!!!!! Congrats now you have to learn to balance because right now you'll be falling on your face a lot.
