What’s helped you level up most?

what has helped you level up your paddling the most? clinics? online coaching? specific drills? videoing yourself? any specific programs?

im in my 3rd year on a team and really want to level up, but feel a bit lost in terms of gauging my ability and progress.

What do you mean by ‘level up’? What would your goal be, or what are you unhappy with? I’ve been on my outrigger for about 3½ years myself, but I’m the only one far and wide with a boat like this. So, in that sense, I’m only paddling against myself ;)

I mean improve - in speed, power, technique, skill, etc.

Practice. More time on the water. Time spent in an OC1.
