Download or read book Canoeing and Kayaking Florida written by Johnny Molloy and published by Menasha Ridge Press. This book was released on 2011-01-15 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely updated, Canoeing & Kayaking Florida, 2nd is the most comprehensive guide to the best of Florida's unique streams, springs, creeks, and rivers. Engaging and concise yet filled with carefully selected details vital to any successful Florida paddling adventure, Canoeing & Kayaking Florida spares readers encyclopedic fluff in favor of practical, no-nonsense information. With expanded regional maps and revised river maps, Canoeing & Kayaking Florida is simply the best and most informative Florida paddling guide available. Florida has a lot of sand, but it also has a lot of water--and not just for drinking. It's only natural that native Floridians and transplants alike paddle and ply the waterways of this waterway-rich state. Of course, Florida's native Indians and subsequent settlers used the creeks, streams, and rivers long before the first plastic kayak or fiberglass canoe took to this watery paradise. In the early 1970s, the state of Florida established a canoe trail system, which was born out of paddlers discovering the many destinations here. For various reasons, this state-sanctioned canoe trail system lost momentum. Building on the state's efforts and adding their own discoveries, paddling enthusiasts Elizabeth F. Carter and John L. Pearce brought together the rich and varied streams, creeks, and rivers of Florida. Together, they penned the original version of portions of this book, A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to the Streams of Florida, Volume I. Their book covered the north central part of the state as well as the panhandle. This was followed by A Canoeing & Kayaking Guide to the Streams of Florida, Volume II, written by Lou Glaros and Doug Sphar. Their book covered the southern half of the state. Paddling grew steadily in Florida due in part to these excellent guidebooks, establishment of paddling clubs, positioning of outfitters on rivers, and population growth. More people explored new waterways, not only in new kayaks made of varied plastic but also ultra-lightweight canoes easy to paddle and transport. More recently, a rise in the use of recreational kayaks has led to a rebirth of paddling's popularity. In 2004, Molloy worked on a new consolidated paddling guide to Florida and refloated previously covered rivers, checking access points, and floated new waterways to highlight newer opportunities for Florida paddlers. Several new wilderness streams were added to the book. In the new 2007 edition, Molloy and Elizabeth Carter added a few more streams, and revised the maps for easier use. For over 20 years, Menasha Ridge Press's Canoeing & Kayaking Florida has provided the essential information needed to paddle the waterways of the Sunshine State.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking to try stand up paddling for the first time? Have you already paddled a few times and are now looking to purchase your own stand up paddle board? Do you want to safely introduce paddle boarding to your friends and family? Are you a yoga teacher or fitness instructor wanting to teach SUP Yoga or SUP Fitness? Are you a stand up paddle board retailer or SUP rental facility? Are you a long term stand up paddle boarder and want to learn more about your paddle board and SUP gear? Are you a fitness buff wanting to enhance your exercise regime? Are you an outdoor enthusiast looking for an easy year round activity? Are you an athlete looking to cross train? If you answered yes to any of the above, then this book is the answer to all your questions. This book begins by studying the gear that is essential for paddle boarding. If you already own or have otherwise access to a paddleboard and/or other SUP gear, this book will help you understand and appreciate what your gear is best made for. If you do not already have access to a paddleboard/gear, after reading this book you will be able to choose the board and gear that is best suited for your size, skills and needs. The book continues by going over essential skills such as proper stance, paddle strokes and muscle activation. Stand up paddle boarding, if performed right, will serve simultaneously as a great core strengthening and joint rehabilitating activity. We then cover the essential safety principles that you need to follow as a paddle boarder and also the principles that you need to adhere to when taking other people out on the water, whether friends, family or paying clients. The methodologies that we are giving you come from having taught various forms of paddle boarding to thousands of clients throughout the years. While keeping in mind that every one learns differently, we have chosen what we consider the most essential and the most practical. Even though we would like to believe that we have successfully captured the essence of flat water stand up paddling in a very comprehensive manner, we understand that stand up paddling is a continuously evolving and developing sport. Board construction, gear availability, sport etiquette, fitness and exercise science, real life situations are for example some of the parameters that constantly change. Having said that, we would love to hear how this book helped you in your own stand up paddle explorations. Is there something you would like to see added to "Walk On Water"? Do you have an inspiring stand up paddle story you wish to share with your fellow paddle boarders? It just so might be featured in our next revision.
