kayak surfing
Two days ago I was kayak surfing, what is kayak surfing? kayak surfing is when people go surfing with kayak. Same as body surfing using the force of the wave to push the kayak. The way I learned how to surf is with a canoe at Nash Harbor. Then later this summer I started using the"cobra strike" a surfing kayak. Owned by K.U.C. or kuskokwim campus then later on they put the kayaks away for winter. So I started using mine its a "loon111"camping kayak but good in the waves to. Its same as shown on tv but for real you wait for a good size wave and surf it in and keep the kayak from turning and tiping over. The way you keep the kayak from tiping and turning paddle with the wave. Use the paddle like a rudder like the old time movies where they go down rapids and they have rudders in the back of the river boat or canoe.you use the paddle like that.

It sounds dangerous! Did you know that people do kayak surfing in Hawaii all the time. I wonder what it would be like to do it in tropical water.
