A basic and general guide to UEAA's dragon boat paddling technique.
Here's a video I like that demonstrates it from a side view. One difference is that they keep their outside leg extended (leg against the side of the boat ) to use to push back when pulling. Personally, I keep my outside leg down and back so I can reach forward a bit more, and it's a bit easier for me to breath. • Dragonboat Technique: ...

we've come a long way since 2010 :-). This was our old stroke from 3 years ago. Been adopting a new stroke the last two seasons.

He is not wrong. Different teams use different techniques for their own unique strategy.

@StephanieO25 Thanks for the feedback. The blade does sink all the way in once the boat is full. Empty boats float higher up. I'd rather have good form then bend too far forward because that compresses the abs too much and restricts breathing.

can you tell me about the specs of the tool you are holding???

@StephanieO25 13 лет назад

Agree with other comment that the blade is not deep enough - a combination of the fact that he is holding the paddle too low and he doesn't drop down enough with his upper body

I am surprised his outside leg is underneath...it looks like he gets very negative on the angle at the end of the stroke...I train with Puff and we use the "Philly" stroke.it utilizes a side entry..I also use both legs to to pull when at 100%...but thats just me! :)

My leg position is just the opposite to the guy in the videl. I extend the outside leg and bend the inside leg. It works better.

one more thing, we should hold at around 1 inch above the blade... not on the blade...

He is not all wrong. (except the lower hand) This technique is for longer races. When you are rotating with your lower back muscle and compressing one side of your abs. The upper hand side lungs would work perfectly fine. However, he is wrong at the raise paddle part. It is better to keep low and close to the boat, not go around!

Dude the guy filming can chill and stop holding the laugh

@denisecrook4522 10 лет назад

I have my legs opposite. Bottom Hand should be one hand width up from the base so when you bury the paddle head up to your hand you know the blade is buried. Paddle out by or before the hip. Pushing forward with the top hand means he is scooping water behind him and creating dirty water for the paddler behind him who is now grabbing bubbles not water. hhmm.

@negint12 11 лет назад

what are you doing?..

@moukbu4235 Год назад

Blades not buried

@fky1226 7 лет назад

Wrong leg position, wrong bottom hand position - holding too low, and not deep enough in the water.

@CalebWheelz 9 лет назад

Your paddle shouldn't wobble through the water like that.

This is some great advice for prospective dragon boaters... if you like this, check out my dragonboat doc; ru-vid.com/group/PLE3443DF25011054F

@angelleite8447 5 лет назад

He just said to use every muscle. Then he says to not use your arm muscles. You even know what your talking about or what???

@MrRaErickson 5 лет назад

angel leite all muscles together in unison. Not isolating with the arms is what he means.

@daijobuCreatives 11 лет назад

Sorry, not good technique being demonstrated here. Outside hand way too low, inside arm should help to drive down and lift paddle during recovery. Too much useless discussion on which muscles should be used when you can feel it during actual paddling and it's pointless to note these details in a video. I've never seen anyone good at paddling advising a reversed stance with the legs. This is wrong as it'll get the paddlers off balanced on the recovery.

He has no control... If you gave him a carbon paddle he would be all over the place... Lol...
