How to fix and re seal a foam kayak bulkhead
Nice video! As some other people pointed out, she does not hold on the paddle or the kayak several times. In a windy situation, this is very dangerous. When using a paddle float, it is better to keep the kayak tipped over because this way the wind moves the kayak slowly. With the kayak in that position, it is possible to maintain a leg in the cockpit to free both hands and inflate and insert the paddle float. Putting the pump inside the cockpit does not seem a good solution either.
Rigid paddle floats may work for super athletic folks, however for the average flexibility or increased weight paddler, you better have an inflatable paddle float. Though slightly longer to deploy due to having to be inflated, they are easier to stow AND will work for everyday paddlers, not just those with advanced skills or super athletic.
Voiceover: "... and never let go of your paddle". Model: Lets go of the paddle. Exactly at the same moment. Couldn't have been timed better.
Thanks for posting just bought a new 12-ft pack boat having a bit of trouble thanks
Just make sure you are in four feet of water. Easy peasy.
Interesting innovation of a “keeper” to hold the paddle shaft in position! I know some paddlers this could help - please, could you show those more clearly, or explain how they are made and set up? TIA :)
She’s also standing just to make it a bit less realistic 🤪
that's a great video. I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
Great way to destroy your paddle
real world 🚫 REALY
she lets go of boat and paddle GMAFB😅
Easily done in calm water where you do not capsize. Show us the manoever in waters where you actually are likely to capsize!
With waves?
At 0:12 she doesn't hold on to her kayak. Not safe.
Tosses pump into the cockpit.....That can easily get in the way of getting in the seat, get pushed to the very front and be inaccessible once in the cockpit, or fall out if the rescue fails.
Nice 👍🏼
Does anyone know what the small bungee with hook end is designed for under the front of the seat?
It is to hold the seat back forward while transporting. It attaches to the other bungie on the back of the seat rest. That is the only use for it that I have discovered.
this is ok if you have keyhole cock pit.. but you have to sit on the rear deck if you have an ocean cockpit
What kind of shoes is she wearing?
wet shoes
pmsl 😁😁😁
@@sme4969 Yeah, very funny! I wanted shoes that would keep my feet dry. I found such shoes. No thanks for your help!
@@barbaraibiel i didn't say a thing lol it was Andrea said wet shoes LOL
Why does video skip as she gets in. BS video
Maybe she had to try multiple times? For conciseness they only kept the best clip, you can see her getting back in the kayak in one whole clip. Nice try troll.
First thing she does is let go of her paddle
I like my kayak leash, especially in rough water, because re-entry becomes a lot harder if I have to hold on to my paddle too.
@@joefico8302 I agree completely. I always use a tether for my paddle. Even if the kayak stays upright, a small mistake such as having the paddle slip off when I'm eating lunch or fighting a fish could leave me stranded.
@@conniechipgodfrey3239and @Joe Fico A spare paddle should always be carried on the deck. Having one means in the worst case, you'll have one if you let go of your main one. A rescue where the capsized simmer gets tangled in a leash is no fun, especially in big water conditions. If using a leash, I recommend it be as short as possible and with a quick disconnect.
@@robertnissenbaum Most paddles used as spares have to be assembled and may not be available that easy in rough conditions.
@@joefico8302 she lets boat go also
Have you made a video about getting to a kayka from a sketchy shore?
Nice seat, however the rivet that holds the rigid plastic seat back (below adjustment knob) is a poor design. The one on my Riot Enduro 12 pulled out during use and quickly became a nuisance for the remainder of my trip. I replaced the rivet with stainless hardware (nut, bolt, lock washer and 2 washers) and it has never given me any trouble since. If you have this seat you may want to do some preventative maintenance or inspect the rivet often.
Just got that kayak and noticed the seat being annoying to stay in place. The bungle that pulls the seat forward kept losing tension if I put too much pressure on the back. Idk if you had the same problem or if what you did with the rivet stopped it from moving around. Could you maybe explain what you did more? Thanks!
@@Peeingstickymilk Mine loses tension as well. I have no remedy for it short of knotting the rope in a fixed position. I do know that if the seat back becomes too loose the bungie that holds it upright comes off the hook and the entire thing falls out of place. It is very difficult to fix while seated. The bolt I used only fixed the rivet issue and won't help with the tension. However, it was the tension on the seat back that pulled the rivet out in the first place.
Does anyone have a lead on where to get a replacement rudder? Mine broke at the bracket mounting the rudder to the kayak

Hi, How about some info on the outfitting of the Magnum's? It would be great to see how the outfitting works - unfortunately there's nothing on your homepage.
sure thing, may take us a bit to get to, but we will add it to the list.
Thanks for the demo! Is it preferable to transport Riot kayaks on the deck (as demo'ed) or in a "J" type rack?
Both ways work well. J racks are super easy and support the hull better especially for a longer journey
