The final segment on paddle techniques is posted at http://www/davidkalama.com Also Dave's race tips article is pretty useful for anyone competing this season.

Thanks Bill for all the great posts. Loving Kalama's site. They're having a Kalama Kamp here in FL and only wish I could make it and absorb some knowledge.

Dave's tips have added a lot of pleasure to my downwinders.  I'm very grateful for the free advice.

I'm a bit confused about the 3rd and 4th images in his paddle photo.  It looks like the images are out of sequence.

Didn't someone here on the zone post about it, and Randy agreed?

Am I wrong? Is it backwards?  Am I crazy?  Are they opposite?

Well, yes, you are crazy, but they are probably backwards. So do the opposite. Get the chicken salad.
