In this video i try to learn the flatwater freestyle kayak trick the double pump.
With a bit of trial and error I am eventually able to do a succesfull double pump. If you've got any tips for me please let me know.

    Nice! I would try practicing with a bit of forward momentum first rather than from static. Then you can work on a static double pump later. Another observation is to try and lift the bow out of the water more on the first stroke. There's three things that you could try next time. 1) On the first stroke, continue it to the back of the boat until it comes out of the water while simultaneously pushing your lower leg (in this case your right leg) into the end of the boat. 2) When you do the second stroke really slam your upper leg/foot (in this case your left leg) hard to the end of the boat as the bow drops. A lot of people neglect the use of their legs during the double pump and cartwheel and end up relying on their weight and the paddle too much. But using the legs is very important.

    eerste beweging is heel goed, de tips van Simon zijn helemaal correct. Ik denk dat er 2 dingen nog 'missen' in het tweede gedeelte (voorkant onder duwen). 1: uw benen actief onder water persen. 2: uw rechter blad tijdens deze beweging van ver achter de kajak naar die benen duwen die je onder water duwt. Komt helemaal goed bij de zwembadsessies!

    You aren’t very far behind me in the learning curve. I found that trying to slam my left paddle blade down into the water helped me finish the rotation. Notice how your left blade rarely touches water.
