Online Sea Kayaking - Surf two different effects 

I think OSK did a great job demonstrating what happens with a sea kayak in the surf. Being knocked over by a breaking wave is a foregone conclusion if you sit parallel and do NOTHING but it is a good demonstration of how the water pushes the hull out from under you so your CG capsizes you. Before long it is possible to compensate for this with boat edge and body position without bracing at all. Having a reliable roll on both sides makes learning all of this basic surf stuff soooooo much easier. Good job OSK.

He did well filming that. Know i wouldn't fancy sitting completely still completely broadside to breaking wave

That black and orange kayak is gorgeous.

Thank you! Good explanations, and we see exactly what happens. This is inspiration to learn sea kayaking.

Thanks, great, excellent video. It is of a superior quality !!👋👋👋

Very nicely framed images, love the video. Will look out for the next one. Cheers!

Great footage and narration!

really clear explanation of the flip -thanks

Awesome video man!

Great demonstration dude! that was great. Cheers and thumbs up from me.

Excellent, excellent video!

Well done! I never thought about the two different ways that you get knocked over by big waves vs little waves. In either case I just brace offshore like crazy. I'm not sure lining the boat works out every time, when the waves are even medium sized I get surfed backwards many times trying to break out of the surf zone. It's very tiring, but I am learning to surf backwards.

Thx for the info!

I hope you'll always be happy with kayaking.

If you brace towards the shore you will flip. If you brace into the wave you will survive the wave. This is a good beginners course.

I'd be cool if these videos were available "online." 👌

I meet you in Ulsan, Korea.

That switch from low brace to high brace at 3:00 🤣

around 30 years ago I Was surfing in on a wave, playing around in a whitewater boat... the surf was getting bigger as the time went along... managed to pull of the perfect 'cruciform' ie bow of the boat pointing straight down stern upon in the air paddle held to form a cross, you get the idea. Next thing I know im doing a front flip and smack face first down onto the beach, with full force of the wave pushing me into the sand, broke my arm in three places had concussion and lost a tooth..... moral of the story.... meh... forget about that go have fun sometimes sh*t happens

Hello, Mr.Simon, I am MR gu, a Korean kayaker.

"Sea kayaks capsize really easily in the surf." Yeah, I experienced that rather viscerally in the first hour of paddling at Tybee Island this past summer...

It's amazing that he's surfing an Explorer.

Slap support is the easiest and best for novices to learn, you don’t try slap support on the waves downside. I remember an old book by Derek Hutchinson called sea canoeing it had the best illustrations ( he drew them) I’ve ever seen on techniques, rolling, support etc.

Music by Lewys???

I always say, don’t fight the wave. Tuck in, and roll with it.

Is a longer Kayak better for handling the weaves or a shorter Kayak? What kind of kayak is that in the video and how long it is?

Get a wave ski it has fins underneath making it much more controllable.

great tutorial, thank you - where is that wonderful beach?

Really love your channel,just subscribed.Any tips please for a new youtuber ,how to get more subscribers please

After recovering, do you stay wet for the entire duration of your paddling session?

my anxiety when the wave flips you went 99999
