Kayaking

Kayaking is a water sport for the peace loving. A kayak is basically a streamlines vessel for one or two paddlers. Kayaks are made of fiberglass or wood. Kayaking is mostly done in calm waters using a paddle. But extreme kayaking is done in swift flowing rivers which are known as white water kayaking. But kayaking should be done with expert supervision and a life jacket is mandatory while kayaking. Various forms of kayaking events are organized specially in New Zealand and Australia which are based on skill and control since these vessels can be very difficult to control indeed.
