Hi Bernadette and Arie! It was our pleasure, glad we could finally meet in person, but too bad we couldn't paddle together! We wish you a nice stay there, and better weather so you can enjoy the area! A big hug!
Hi Sylvie and Dimitri, nice to see your trips to the French coast! I reconize some of the scenery in your video, since I passed by the Ile de Bréhat in 2020 during my solo kayak expedition from the Netherlands to Spain: on the island is a camp site called "camping municipal de Bréhat". I did not stay on the camping, but just west of it is a passage from south to north. That's were I passed. So our kayaks experiences crossed there!😊 Best regards from Spain.
Yes, I remember you telling this on another reply. What a small world it is! We stayed on the mainland, but very close to the water. Perfect to leave the car and go on foot.
We ourselves are based along the Belgian West Coast, in a small town called Oostduinkerke. You will see our paddling opportunities in our next video! Won't be long!😊
Wiedermal ein großartiges video! Man sieht das ihr ein riesen spass habt! 🙃👍🏻💪🏻 Another great video! You can see that you are having a lot of fun! 🙃👍🏻💪🏻 
Splendid, but better on the water around the island instead of on it. It is beautiful, don't get me wrong... but too much tourists. One the water: none!😁
Dankjewel hoor! Ja, dat is inderdaad héél juist! We beseffen dat maar al te goed, vandaar dat we elke training hierop oefenen. De originele beelden leren ons dat evacuatie van ons beide in minder dan 3 minuten is gebeurd. Fantastisch toch!💪😎
@@Northseakayak Zeker fantastisch. Veiligheid boven alles, ik kijk graag naar jullie filmpjes waar jullie op veiligheid trainen en het een 2de natuur wordt. Het kan zo snel mis gaan op zee. Lijkt me wel zonde om zulke mooie kajaks te beschadigen op die rotsen het zijn immers geen 200 euro Decathlon kajaks.
@@mpspuij dankjewel om ons te volgen! Valt mee hoor, wat schade betreft. Enkele krasjes en dat is het, meer niet. Kajaks zijn oerdegelijk. Zeker die polyethyleen boten die we ginds gebruiken.
@@Northseakayak Ik had net al eens goed gekeken ze leken me ook polyethyleen, maar toch kosten ze best wat., ik heb zelf een recreative polyethyleen kajak maar 3,66 m lang en 73 cm breed en redelijk vlakke bodem dit vanwege een defect evenwicht. Zo lig ik minder snel om. Helaas kan er geen schort om de kuip want die schijnt te ruim te zijn. Telkens als ik weer ga kajakken moet ik mijn balans opnieuw vinden dat is heel vreemd en soms best angstig omdat je niet weet waar het punt ligt waar je om gaat. Dat moet ik dan testen om te zien wat de grenzen zijn. Zee kajakken is denk ik voor mij niet weggelegd zeker niet met een smallere kajak. Jammer want ik woon ook aan zee. Mijn kajak bestaat uit een gespoten onder en boven helft die gelast zijn daardoor is deze toch erg licht. Misschien trek ik de stoute schoenen ooit aan en ga ik een smallere kajak proberen.
@@mpspuij begrijp het, maar het draait gewoon om de fun die je eraan hebt. Je hoeft daarvoor zeker niet de capriolen uit te voeren om je te amuseren. Zolang het op je eigen niveau is, en dat alles veilig verloopt ben je volgens mij goed bezig hoor! Onze eerste bootjes waren ook een totaal verschil dan wat we nu hebben, check maar es onze oudste video's. Véél plezier op het water!
May be an "error" on datation video for your last (6) trip in Loguivy-Bréhat .. July (07) will be préferable edit on 12/08/2023 Great images on our local local playground (from Morlaix to St Brieuc) and Brehat hot-spot .. with very bad "meteorology" in NorthBrittany this year .. Hope to sea you next in this area Dominique D.
Hello Dominique! Thank you! Where is the date wrong? In the credits it are the right dates..... Maybe I overlooked something? Anyway, we will be back! You have a splendid back yard to play in! And we were lucky to have a window in between regarding the weather. Still al lot of wind, and rain, but manageble. All the best!
Hi Tom! Thank you! Both Sylvie and I are using 70° feather on all of our paddles. We're used to have much wind, and therefor it is more efficient. 90° would be theoretically perfect, but bad for wrists.
Hi Massimo, I would reccommend LV (low volume) or MV (mid volume) sized kayaks. But that is merely a guideline. Best thing to do is test the kayak before you buy, or at least a similar kayak from the same brand. Sizes are different with different brands. Never go for a HV (high volume) with that bodyweight, that is for sure. Otherwise the boat will paddle with you , and not the other way around. Best of luck!
thank you, you're so kind. can you give me a list of quality brands and models with the right technical and safety measures to take into consideration?
@@massimoaugu You're welcome. We"ll stick to the Brittish brand P&H as they have the know-how of building top-notch boats. Maybe check their website for specifications. Cheers!
@@gw6797 extremely versatile, at the cost of a bit of speed. See it as a complete sea kayak, it a short package. Very manouvrable and surfs well. But again, speed is a tiny bit lower, wich is normal and logic.
Amazing Video Dimitri and Sylvie😉
Hi Lorenzo! Thank you!! We like your photos as well!
Skills. Excellent video.
Thank you for the kind words!
Gr8 to see the special forces of Sea Kayaking again,the crew that is ....North Sea Kayaking.
Cheers Tony! You're doing us too much honor! Glad you like the new vid!!!

Weer fantastisch !
Dankjewel Bea! Onze Hugo was ook van de partij! Totaal anders varen in vergelijking met onze kust.😁👍
Ja 'k heb Hugo bezig gezien in jullie filmpje@@Northseakayak !
Elke ervaring maakt jullie wijzer, een mooie oefening@@Northseakayak
Exciting stuff!

@@Northseakayak That cute house you rented looks lovely. Just curious; where in Belgium are you based?
We ourselves are based along the Belgian West Coast, in a small town called Oostduinkerke. You will see our paddling opportunities in our next video! Won't be long!😊
Oh, that was real "rock hopping" at 1:33 and a real incident management!
Yes indeed, and because of numerous training the recovery went smooth. Hard work pays off in the end.😁💪
Great video! And glad NorthSeaTurtle was okay 😀
Thanks for your concern! Could have been worse. But it didn't, and we had a great time. Cheers!😊👌
Wiedermal ein großartiges video! Man sieht das ihr ein riesen spass habt! 🙃👍🏻💪🏻
Another great video! You can see that you are having a lot of fun! 🙃👍🏻💪🏻

Thank you for watching! It was a true pleasure, rock gardening, rescue training and sightseeing, all together!
Hi Dimitri, nice place top be with plastic. God music and the second best wife in earth😊
To be with plastic. ON earth 😮
Cheers Edmund, Yes, I really enjoyed the new Leo. Good weapon of choice for this, love the manouvrability. And I let Sylvie know!😁
Another fantastic looking trip .... and with all the rock hopping and playtime with come to expect with your days out!!
Thank you! It was awesome, and we were lucky with the weather. It was storming the day after we left back home.
Great video! Have sailed passed ilê de Brehat but didn’t go ashore
Splendid, but better on the water around the island instead of on it. It is beautiful, don't get me wrong... but too much tourists. One the water: none!😁
Wow mooi kajakken. En dan zie je weer dat het gevaar in een klein hoekje zit op zee. Zijn toch scherpe rotsen. Mooie training.

A new North Sea Kayak video and a War on Drugs sound track? That makes a pretty good Monday!
Hahaha, you're a fan too! Love their music and even seen them live when they were in Belgium past year.
super vid!
Thank you Richie! Glad you enjoyed it! Hope everything is OK with you?
Looks like a great/fun paddle! Thanks for filming it!
We do our best, and it's very rewarding to get feedback from people as yourself. That's the reason why we keep doing it! Chhers! Have a fine weekend!
@@Northseakayak thanks...you also!

Hope to sea you next in this area

Excellent work. Looks like a lot of fun.
It will be good to temp you to the UK for a few missions
Thank you so much! Don't tempt us too much, we are making plans for a short stay on Isle of Skye next year! But not a 100 procent sure yet.😁👍
@@Northseakayak sounds amazing 🤩.
Keep in touch, it would be great to meet up
Looooove it... so intense... and the War on drugs... thank you... 🤗🤗🤗
Another fan! We love their music so much! Good vibes! Thank you!
@@Northseakayak
your trips in combination with the inspiring music are just a treat for the eyes and ears... 🌊🌊🌊
Some very fun stuff, I have to ask Dimitri have you every paddle with no feather?
Hi Tom! Thank you! Both Sylvie and I are using 70° feather on all of our paddles. We're used to have much wind, and therefor it is more efficient. 90° would be theoretically perfect, but bad for wrists.

Nicht realistisch. Sehr beschönigend. Alle kritischen Situationen rausgeschnitten. Und die Musik ………..
....we even used AI and all was filmed in a studio!😜
