Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#15 What makes the perfect paddle?
Q: Why did Nimbus develop the Wavewalker SP?
To provide a middle-ground option for paddlers who see others surfing with a full-size Wavewalker and want a more versatile, less exhausting paddle for touring and occasional surfing.
#15 What makes the perfect paddle?
Q: What is the biggest mistake paddlers make when choosing a paddle?
Overthinking and misinformation, with too many conflicting opinions about paddle length, blade size, and feather angle, which can overwhelm beginners and derail the selection process.
#15 What makes the perfect paddle?
Q: What is the main thing people ask for when they come to Nimbus to buy a paddle?
People often have an initial idea of what they want, but the guidance is to assess height, paddling style, kayak type, and current paddle usage to determine the best fit, with emphasis on not overthinking the choices.
#13 Practice: Turning Goals into Real Progress
Q: So what, in your opinion, is the most effective practice routine as a paddler?
Limor asks about the best practice routine; Mike emphasizes a structured approach starting with a 10-minute focused practice on specific skills, progressing from macro to micro analysis, and personalizing techniques through feedback from qualified instructors. He also stresses cross-instruction and feedback as essential for safe improvement.
#14 Paddle Canada Level 3 course
Q: What are the requirements to register for a Level 3, beyond passing Level 2?
Beyond Level 2, you must be able to roll on at least one side, and ideally have practiced other techniques like tow corrections and re-entries; the course also emphasizes preparation in stronger currents, bigger waves, and broader navigation scenarios.
