What is Eskimoteer?
Eskimoteer is nothing else than, when you've turned upside down with your kayak (with your head under water), to turn yourself up again while you're still in the kayak! This technique was invented a long time ago and used by the Eskimos. They often hunted in kayaks and it occurred regularly that they turned around in the ice-cold water. In order to save themselves from this life-threatening situation, they devised a technique to emerge quickly again and 'eskimoteer' arose.
Already familiar with eskimoteer?
Can you already eskimoteer, but do you want to refine the technique or continue with other techniques such as eskimoteer with the hands, broken paddle or even the principles of freestyle kayaking? Then you are also at the right address here.
