    It's nice to see normal kayakers practice this, instead of all the pros videos. I don't feel so bad with my tries now!

    I practiced paddle float re-entry today. I got laughed at too. But not that bad. Thanks for a fun video!

    Fantastic! A serious message with added laughter, frustration and realism. Thank you both.

    Please, please can you guys post some more instructional videos…..I haven’t laughed so much since Manuel acquired his’Siberian Hamster’ in Faulty Towers. On a more serious note I echo the comments of others who have praised the fact that it’s great to see mortals trying out some of the manoeuvres that the pros seem to do so easily….it’s sobering to to be reminded just how difficult it might be getting back into your boat if things go wrong. Thanks for posting.

      Oh wow, I didn't think someone would get the message that the video is about having fun while practicing unpleasant kayaking stuff, but you did get it exactly Stephen, thanks👍😄
      There clearly is no experts in this video, so laughter is the best reaction 😄

    Never tried canoeing thinking of starting at the grand old age of 64.
    Well done that was amazing being able to self rescue yourself.
    And yes practice practice so it becomes second nature like every thing in life.
    Ps love the language 🤭😂😂😂😂

      I’m 73 and off to practice paddle float recently tonight. She is not a barrier to enjoying yourself. Its only negative self talk that stops you. Join a club and get some instruction.

    This is brilliant - honest portrayal of the difficulty of turning theory in to reality! Worth showing again at the end how it actually was meant to be. Thanks for this.

    never put a still inflated paddle float between your legs. When you recapsize you will be trapped in the boat!!

    Lot of fun! not sure if it's the easiest way but none of those ways are easy I suppose. good laugh anyway. just to let you know NRS paddle float comes with a manual how to re-enter describing most popular way in detail. I kept laughing too when she said she'll wee herself haha. Today in Lee Valley whitewater centre although failed assessment, I managed couple of times to re-enter Grabner Hype inflatable kayak with no paddle float support.

    Both the right and the wrong way seem like medieval torture. I feel your pain. I'm currently trying to re-enter without paddle float and I'm nowhere near any success.😢 Only the pain is always there.
