Great clip, thx for posting.

Why are there no instructional vids on double kayaks and without a paddle float???? I mean luckily I did a canoe and kayaking camp so I knew most of these maneuvers but it's different in the situation above, especially when the lake you're in is like 200ft deep and your kayaking partner us inexperienced...

@fzburk I've heard (from the instructor on this course I just did) a problem with sticking foot in boat to keep it from floating away while putting float on can be a wave smashing it and pulling it away from you with your leg stuck inside and injuring your leg. Don't know how relistic that scenario is, but I wear a pigtail and would probably just clip that onto a deck line while I worked if I was worried about loosing the boat.

Very nicely done

That looks like such a hassle. What is the advantage over cowboy?

One way to improve and make sure this rescue is more successful is to ensure that the end of the paddle you rest on the boat (ie, not with the paddle float) goes underneath all of the deck cords (bungees and deck lines). This will secure this end in place on the boat for you. Certainly helpful in bigger conditions. Even better...learn the cowboy rescue....

In the very beginning of the video you are putting the paddlefloat onto the paddle with the boat right side up. This is very, very hard to do in rough conditions. A better way would be to keep the boat upside down and place a foot into the cockpit. You can put the float onto the paddle while the boat is upside down, plus the boat won't get away from you in the wind. Only turn the kayak over once you've got the paddlefloat onto the paddle and you're ready to proceed.

That's a really good technique... you should always carry a water pump to take out the water inside thou, it's harding tiping the water by yoursef.
-
my question is how would this technique go in the surf?
i am not a expert but i could see it possibly been flawed with waves moving the paddle around
