Guys, I've come across this video
and was blown away by the quality of analysis and clarity of understanding. I've been researching the forward stroke materials for some time, but this is by far the best. Wanted to share this with those who haven't seen it yet.

Also, are there any that you think are as good as this one? I don't mean just good, but the best :D

Yes, this is a very nice tutorial on the mechanics of the paddle stroke. It looks like it is geared more for K1 sprint boats, but the basic concept is there and is easily understood. Good timing as it helps explain the other post on Oscar's clinic and what is going on.

That said, the proper stroke is hard to get just right and props to those who either have a natural talent or work hard to achieve it to be at the top class. I work on it everytime I go out and am a long way from getting it "just right".

Yes, there is actually an answer to the exact same question of pushing with both legs starting at 53:00 :)
