Here is a picture of Nico participating on the Dutch Open Playboat Cup this weekend at Outdoorvalley in Bergschenhoek. Nico is a very enthusiast youthmember of kayakclub de Ronde Venen. Nico made it to the half-final round, surpassed his trainer Jorn! Big applause for Nico!
It was a fun happening at Outdoorvalley: the Playboat Cup was part of a big program of activities around the opening the new kayak shop and the kayak season. I met a lot of kayakfriends.

Hello Hans,
I actually feel that paddling has helped me to lessen a slight lumbar disk pain. Probably by strengthening the abdominal muscles. The doctor doubts so.
Do you know of any basis on this?
Hi Wenley!
Join the club of the painful back!
I am no physician, but my experience is the same as yours: paddling helps (preventing and reparing)!
According to my physiotherapist movement is the best therapy and a nice forwards stroke really does help strengthening abdominal and back muscles. btw: rolling and bracing are not my favorites when I suffer lumbar pain...
