Day 3 of our advanced packraft course saw us on one of our local steep creeks with a decent amount of water. Here Senior WW Instructor Dan Hall shows the group the line and demonstrates how being able to boof is a huge advantage for anything steep. In the end only Dan and I ran this line as stuffing up the lead in might be nasty and there were plenty of other less consequential rapids for participants to safely run.
Notice how Dan is pretty much only paddling on one side (the inside of the turn) for the majority of this run. If you are not already working on your ability to control your direction and produce power then start practicing double stroking then triple stroking then continuous multi stroking all on the one side. The trick is that you need to combine it with edging!
