Very helpful information. I'm trying my best to convince my body not to lean so much to the left side but is difficult, I think is a fear of flipping. I can feel my left leg become "sleepy" (I don't know a better description in english haha) while I'm paddling, which is basically the result on sitting heavy to my left side. Gotta keep training and loose the stress!

Cheers Coach Dave. Very helpful. Can I ask, what length is your blade/paddle? (Used in this video)

My ama pops up so easily when I paddle on the right.
