Le stop contre-courant [...]. Lorsque vous serez dans un courant plutôt vif, vous pourrez utiliser une zone de contre-courant [...] qui se forme à côté pour vous arrêter. Il suffira alors de se placer près de la zone de contre-courant et de tourner vers elle dans le but de réaliser un demi-tour. Le courant fera pivoter l'arrière du canoë vers l'aval, tandis que le contre-courant poussera l'avant vers l'amont, exécutant le demi-tour à votre place (mais participez quand même). À la fin de la manœuvre, la totalité de votre canoë doit se trouver dans le contre-courant. 2, record 1, French, - arr%C3%AAt%20contre%2Dcourant
