CONT

Technique. [...] Une manœuvre [...] qui ne peut être pratiquée que par l'équipier avant ou le soliste, est l'appel débordé : le pagayeur étant supposé bordé à droite fait une torsion du buste vers la gauche, et sans changer la position des mains, immerge sa pagaie à gauche du bateau [...] L'une des faces [de la pagaie] tournée vers la coque et vers l'avant oppose une résistance à l'avancement, et son angle transforme le mouvement rectiligne [du bateau] en mouvement giratoire ou latéral [...]
