Very good instructional video indeed. One thing that Tom doesn't mention in this video or his other excellent videos is that this technique and most of the other techniques he shows in his videos work better with the skeg up. So, if you can remember to retract your skeg before doing this and other techniques, it will be a little easier.... for me, remembering to pull the skeg up before launching a technique is the hard part. :)

Very useful stroke, I apply it all the time. With more edging you get even more out of it.

In what circumstances would you employ a bow rudder rather than a stern rudder? What is the advantage of the bow rudder?

Is it important to keep the top hand on the same side of the body as the lower hand, as in this demonstration? Or can this be done equally effectively with the top hand on the opposite side or centered over the keel like is normally is? I want to try to apply this technique in my down river racer, a notoriously unstable boat design with almost no rocker and a round shape hull, no chine at all to speak of. So not much secondary stability. Keeping the body balanced and centered in this type of boat is critical to staying dry and moving both arms to one side of the boat seems very unbalanced. If this technique has to be performed with both hands on the turning side of the boat, then I wonder if it is even feasible to use this in a DR racer type boat. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated
