Anyone have problem with sore knees after paddling a few hours? I've tried using a towel to lift my legs up but it doesn't work. My left knee gets so stiff that I am unable to walk with out great pain and a limp the next day. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

That way my legs are nicely bent and I donīt put stress in my knee. Some kayaks are very low profile to keep low resistance to wind. I rather have some wind pull but have my legs comfortable.
