Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles With flatwater loops, we really want to dial in our bow stalls to the point that we can begin balancing our boat vertically on end. The balance come from beginning with a small pushing motion of your paddle, but then once you're up on end, you're actually going to dive your paddle into the water and try and pull your bow even deeper underneath the surface. This pulling motion will really dive the boat fully under water, and then your paddle is right near the surface so you can begin launching up and forward and begin that forward somersault of the loop. As you pull your paddle up to the surface, I roll my wrist backwards so I break that surface tension even easier, then launch forward, and create the loop just like the end part. You want to forward somersault and then at the very end of, you're going to throw your weight back to finish that forward somersault off. Take a look.
