Newfound
Woodworks' Fiberglassing DVD ($29.95) In
this video you will look over our shoulders as we describe our hull preparation
techniques, apply the sealer coat, cloth coat and then filler coats of
epoxy. We discuss the purpose of the application materials we supply and
review safety procedures. Three days of intense filming were edited to
78 minutes of extremely valuable information. We show you the fiberglass
wet-out of the outer hull of a kayak and the inner hull of a canoe. We
cut some cloth on a bias and show how it will wrap right around some very
severe bends. We discuss the advantages of blush-free epoxy and how
to use the long cure times to your advantage. If you have never wet-out
fiberglass, this video will help you get the best possible results by
showing you the techniques that work.

1st Roll DVD
by Jay Babina (designer of the Outer Island kayak, $29.95)
Learning the Eskimo
roll is every kayaker's dream from the moment they venture out on their
first paddling experience. The idea of bringing yourself upright from
a capsize is not only unique to the design of the kayak but remains one
of the utmost safety skills that the sea kayaker can learn. "1st Roll" demonstrates a simplified approach to learning the extended paddle roll,
which is the easiest style roll to learn for beginners. 43 minutes.

Welcome to Traditional
Flatwater Canoeing with Caleb Davis ($19.95)
In this video, Caleb
Davis shows you how you can become proficient in solo and tandem paddling
using your own tandem canoe. Traditional paddling is the most commonly
used tandem technique. It is identified by its long graceful stroke. Traditional
paddling is done primarily with the arms, back and thighs providing propulsion.
The traditional solo technique is identified by a Paddler who is kneeling
near the center of the canoe and the canoe is heeled over so that the
Paddler side gunwale is almost at the water. Paddling strokes are only
on one side of the canoe.
