Wow! Very interesting paddle action there too. No rotation of the body at all. These guys must build some interesting muscle formations. I had thought they were using wing paddles but the last clip appears to be just straight paddles with relatively short strokes. I believe you could water ski behind them. Can I get the job as drummer?
