Hiya all, i am new here. Could someone explain the different catagories of kayaking? I have only tried surfing and am interested in what everyone else is doing.

So far i have come up with these that i dont understand: freestyle, squirt, creeking, regatta, descent racing

Thanks in advance

easily put

Freestyle = Tricks (aka playboating)
River running = Duh
Squirt = very low volume boats for specialty tricks
Creeking = steep technical water

to get a better feel try youtube

Im into river running and am sterting to get into playboating

hope this helps
