Specifications
For the best blend of comfort and performance, the balls of the feet should be on the foot pedal
and the thighs should be secure, and comfortably located up under the thigh braces.
For most paddlers, the feet will be in a ‘heels in – toes out’ position.
Novice paddlers tend to adjust their foot pedals too far away, making it necessary to ‘reach’ and
then lose contact with the thigh braces. It is preferable to have the pedals closer in order to
keep firm contact with the thigh braces and maintain a "locked in" or “braced” feeling.
For maximum comfort during a long paddle, be sure to move your feet off of the foot pedals and
stretch from time to time.
