bad launch in the surf
Saw this on Facebook, I don't know how old it is or if it's been on here before. This guy is having a hard time of it.

Perfect example of why you SHOULD NEVER stand between your kayak and the beach

That started out kinda funny, got pathetic, then got a bit scary. That guy had NO place being any where near a surf launch. He couldn't even stand up let alone control his boat. I got a feeling both the second and third guy may have never even paddled a kayak before cause it looked like they didn't know their left from right. I hope no one makes this guy's mistake. Mike

I've been in rough surf before where in no time at all I was so tired I could hardly stand. It happens fast. I think you really need to be careful because that ocean isn't too forgiving.

I was a little nervous opening that as I was sure one of you guys had video taped ME
I guess what bothered me watching it was that someone was filming it rather than helping the guy, he could have been seriously hurt. |

Ask Tony. He will probably just keep filming. How else will everybody know how not to do it.

Another reason why launching DRUNK is a bad idea.

It doesn't take much to flip a kayak.
It would be fun to make one of these videos on purpose Don't forget the dorsal fins circling in the background.
