It’s also good to slide forward an inch or two on the seat if the paddler behind is very flexible and hinges a lot. To be honest some paddlers overdo hingeing… they throw themselves forward for the catch too much, they want to headbutt the gunnel and catch as much forward (almost at the knee of the paddler in front) as anatomically possible..but there is such a thing as too much hingeing, the catch angle shouldn’t be too flat.
