I watched the video of Szolt Friday evening, Saturday morning I headed to my usual launch site in Redondo Beach, King's Harbor. The freeway was blocked, so instead I headed to Long Beach, Los Alamitos instead (so much for filing float plans).
I was sleepy and almost turned around and went home. Instead (Zombie like?) I started paddling, 2 hrs 45 minutes later I was almost to the three furthest oil platforms, but decided I didn't have enough water to add another hour.
Here's the kick, I was almost channeling the Zsolt video the whole way. I don't think I could have been so focused without it in my head.
I think we all like techniques videos, they psych us up to go paddling and to practice better technique and practice rescues.... I think however the direct simplicity of the Zsolt Technique video instilled in me a powerful kinesthetic effect. In one sense this is obvious, in another sense this is significant. It's 48 hours since I last viewed the video, 33 hours since I landed (22 nMiles 6 hours--so I think I could keep up a fast walk for 6 hours. btw I've never been on a recombinant bike, but I'll bet your right.) The effect has faded. I'll watch it again, and paddle again, reinforcing the learning.

Here's the link to Zsolt just in case:
