Disability Adaptive Kayaking

Video Details: This video clip of Adaptive Kayaking with a Disability shows the modifications and adaptions made by one person with quadriplegia so he could continue to participate in one of the activities he loved prior to his injury. It was a process of frustration, failure, trial and error and took over six years. Adaptive kayaking for people with disabilities is a wonderful sport and pastime. Of course there are many types of kayaks and adjustments can be made for specific needs so that your kayak is suited for you and your disability. Follow common safety procedures. Always wear a Life Jacket and never go alone. Don't forget to bring any medical equipment or medication that you might need if stuck out for longer than expected.
