The first thing to clarify is that the term covers all forms pirogue; ie both kayak and

canoe pirogues are considered. The federation that brings together both kayak and canoe

canoeing is called.

Differences between kayaking and canoeing:

In the kayak the paddler is in a sitting position with a spade shoveling and two leaves.

As you can see in the pictures.

Canoe

The paddler (or canoista) is kneeling and paddle with a single blade paddle. We see in

this picture.

In conclusion, both kayaks and canoes are canoes. They are most commonly used

kayaks because they feel more comfortable and faster than canoes, although the latter

have their faithful followers.
