My daughter was just telling me the thing she didnt like about surfing was paddling out, looks like the dayak makes that easier, but are wipe outs more damaging? so why dosnt the surf kayak look more like a surf board?

Great video. Great paddling. Well done. Somehow I don’t think I could manage any of that in my Sirius.

Awesome boats. Ive gone through a few however as the rocks arent very understanding. Many people take out play boats but there to short and your nose digs in more which is why you see people in 7ft boats out there or longer like the inazones' and stuff. Bailing can be painfull but not as hard as getting back out there and starting off the beach is a sod unless you find some rocks to seal launch off. Its amazing though :D:D Hey,

Alternatively you could go to a good weir (make sure to check first whether it is safe)so you dont have to paddle out and there arent many rocks or sand to scrape along. Try Hurley or Holme Pierpoint. Both really good!
