Although kayaking is like canoeing, it has its differences.  First, a kayaker sits to paddle.  The paddler faces forward with legs in front and they use a double-bladed paddle to move through the water.  Most kayaks have closed decks but sit-on-top and inflatable kayaks are available and gaining popularity. Health Benefits of Kayaking Kayaking has noted health benefits.  Some of the things paddlers can look forward to include:
  • A great cardiovascular workout.  A healthy heart is reason to celebrate.
  • Increased muscle strength.  The back, arms, shoulder, and chest will strengthen from moving the paddle.
  • Increased torso and leg strength.  To power a kayak, a person rotates the torso and applies pressure with their legs.
  • Less wear-and-tear on joints and tissues.  Kayaking is a low impact activity enjoyed by people of all ages.
  • A great stress reliever.  Kayaking calms the nerves and improves your mental well-being.
  According to the NYU Lagone Medical Center, “Kayaking at a moderate pace burns about the same calories per hour as moderate  swimming or slow jogging—around 300 calories for a 130 pound female and 400 calories for a 170 pound male. Not many sports offer such a great combination aerobic and strength workout.” Preparing for Your Sea Kayaking Adventure There are some ways to prepare for your sea kayaking adventure.  One is to acquire the right equipment.  You’re going to need a kayak as well as the appropriate paddle.  You’ll want a life vest or jacket as well as a helmet, wetsuit, wetsuit shoes, and appropriate clothing.  A spray deck keeps water out of the craft which is vitally important if you’re out at sea. Some others items that are helpful include:
  • First aid kit
  • Repair kit
  • Drinkable water
  • High energy foods like protein bars and nuts
  • Dry clothes in a waterproof bag
  • Mobile phone inside a waterproof container
  • GPS
  Take your own needs into account and pack accordingly.  As a seasoned kayaker, you know what you can and can’t live without.  The list above offers the basics.  Build upon it as needed. Keeping the Memory of Your Sea Kayaking Trip Alive Don’t let the excitement of your trip die down before you’re ready.  Create custom lapel pins to hand out to the people you share your experience with.  Tell them about your adventure sea kayaking and give them a gift of a soft enamel, cloisonne, offset printed or die struck pin.  They’re available in your choice of size, shape, and colors. Once you’ve returned home from your trip, give us a call.  We’ll help you decide on the pin design that is right for you.  If you need ideas on ways to set your pins apart from other kayakers, visit our online gallery.  You’ll see the best of the best designs that we offer as you look at the pages of our website.
