It is a static draw while the boat is in motion.  You use it to move your
boat sideways quickly, without losing forward momentum.  A draw on the
mvoe would be a quick, active draw, that will move your boat over a short
distance, i.e., enough to miss a log in your path, or some such.  I've
only done sculling draws while the boat is not moving forward, so that
the only momentum it has is sideways, and is a result of the sculling
movement of the paddle.
