Holy shit. Strap for a stirrup is GENIUS!
It can save you for sure!!
Super helpful! The same strap used to tie the Yak down to the truck, needs to be transferred to the yak while in the water. GOT IT!!!!
Thanks! And yes or keep an extra on the yak always! You can never have enough straps lol
This is very clever I’m going to make that strap part of my kit
Good to hear!
i've flipped my kayak once. in the magroves where the saltwater crocs live. i wasn't this graceful.
I would probably be walking on water lol
The stirrup trick is great!
Thanks!
Amazing tip!!!!
Thanks!!
This is something all paddlers need to practice at least yearly.
Completely agree!!
Jeff is the man!
Yes he is!!
I have a sit in kayak and I worry about not being able to get myself over such a big lip, I haven’t flipped.. yet
For sure try it in a safe spot. There are some other methods that work well for sit in where you hook your leg over but it can be hard depending on how closed off the cockpit is. If possible, it could be easier to swim your kayak to shore, but that is not always an option.
My kayak flip over once so I just climb on top of it and paddle back to shore on a upside down kayak.
That is one way to do it!
A strap is something I need to get just in case. My kayak is much smaller and it's one you sit inside of. I haven't tried it yet but you'd think a smaller kayak would be harder to get back into.
Actually sometimes they are easier unless you’re talking about one that has a really small cockpit like a white water or touring kayak. They take a bit different technique and some times even a friend.
There is a method to roll yourself back up, right? I would love to see that tutorial
It wouldn't apply to this style of kayak due to it being open as you need to be inside to brace your knees keeping you in, have a look for white water kayak rolls you will see some good videos for that
Correct! Here is a link to a great video showing this. ruclips.net/video/v-riOC8poAs/видео.htmlsi=YvXU3XzLvlDTVQk7
Tell me you have never had to flip a 3 seater jetskis back over without saying it
It’s happened lol
Why not just roll?
Not possible on a sit on top kayak.
God damn, maybe I prefer my tourijg kayak instead of a fishijg kayk haha
They can be a a beast if you end up wrong side up.
Yeah but that way, you'll get all wet !!
Just buy another kayak !
Getting wet is ok!
Bad advice. If you have ever uprighted a jet ski you would loop your hands and arm over the top of your topside down like your strap and just pull it back over. No one is finding paddles and straps after flipping all there gear. I could 100% show everyone a better actually life saving method. If you have a kayak look at videos of how to upright jet skis by yourself.
By all means post it up. We are certified instructors. This is not something we just made up and put out there. You have to stay calm and locate your paddle or getting back on the kayak will leave you with no means of moving it and you only need the strap if you have a wide boat and it is hard to flip. I too have a jet ski and they are not the same.
