@@barbaralees Hi, I have got two complaints: fist they put the paddle under the ropes on the deck, so at best You will end up with sitting in the kajak and having your paddle entangled with the ropes behind You - that is no problem, as long as You are on completely calm waters, but then: why did You capsized in the first place? I mean You just capsized, when You where sitting in the boat, having Your paddle in Your hands, i.e. the sea-conditions where to much to handle for You and now someone gives You advice to put Your paddle under the ropes behind You? If you want to do something with fixing your paddle under the ropes, I suggest to look at what this guy does th-cam.com/video/tlr_JzZfY9E/w-d-xo.html to avoid having to fiddle with the paddle-stuck-behind-you-under-the-rope problem (I personally do not like this type of techniques involving extra equippment, but this will lead us astray here...). My second complaint: rescue techniques should be shown under the conditions where they are needed: i.e. with wind, current, waves etc. It is perfectly ok, to show everything in the pool for explanation, but if someone does not show it under the circumstances, where you probably need the stuff, you should not take it for granted that it will work - because: if even your teacher did not try it, how does he know that he explains the right things? To see what I mean, look at th-cam.com/video/j-zpJQeiaNc/w-d-xo.html - and imagine this grade of motion in the water while watching the guys from the Troense Kajakklub trying to keep balance in the pool - this should put their ideas into perspective. Another guy doing a good job in explaining and showing things, is, in my opinion, this one th-cam.com/video/sFrwEV7aMhc/w-d-xo.html . Of course he is a well trained an young fellow and judging from your avatar, you are not. Well than adopt as much as you can and estimate the risks you are willing to take. Another suggestion would be: take Your favorite technique from the Troense video and train applying it. Then try it with tiny waves (say 10cm high) comming ashore in a safe place (beach, shallow water, wind comming in from the sea, NOT blowing from land to the sea etc.). Proceed to slightly bigger waves (20cm) and so on, until You safely master the reentry with the technique of your choice in the conditions You could yourself imagine to still paddle in. If the Troense-video techniques work for You: fine, use them! If you find they don't work, than You could try some of the others. One last link to someone doing a Cowboy-rescue (her second rescue): th-cam.com/video/eCC-oX-OsWg/w-d-xo.html -- compare how he is moving along the kayak - torso as low on the kayak as possible to stabilize himself and compare this to her sitting upright on the kayak in still water. Just my five pence - happy and safe paddling!

A collection of bizzare self-rescue techniques! Better look elsewhere unless you want to learn useless acrobatics.
What do you suggest. The last few ones, as he Said, were mostly for fun. But the first ones were very useful in my opinion.
