How does it perform when paddling backwards through the surf?

Wavster,

As Jim said, one thing i am recommending to everybody who buys the Trident is to add a strap to the front of the Rod Pod to keep the forward end down tight. It makes an unbelievable difference in how the hatch seals. Come on in and ill set it all up for you and show you some other modifications I'm working on that are making the boat That much better than any other.

No need. I feel like I can surf this thing. I surfed a small wave at Seaside Reef last night after
fishing the kelp for awhile around sunset.

...although, I did paddle it backwards to adjust for timing when landing. It handled great.
No more backwards landings for me (unless I find the surf is just too big).

I have a feeling the surf won't hold me back from fishing like it used to.
