  • Me: I'm gonna learn how to paddle! :D

    After the video: Fuck you, expertvillage! :D

  • Your just explaining the kayaks you fool!!!!!!

  • That looks like Texas Rowing Center. They were nice enough to give me a sit on top with a seat full of water the last time I was there. Got a nice ass cramp from minute one.

  • The best thing about the sit-on-top kayak is that spiders can't hide inside the boat.

  • dude i thought this was to learn how to paddle cus im going tomorrow and im a newb i need help lol

  • sweet now i kno how to paddle. thanks

  • Turning isn't hard in a rec. kayak. And mine goes pretty much straight all the time, I've had mine for a few years now and it's a perception Sundance, and it's really easy to turn and very easy to control.

  • You guys are beginners and want to know about whitewater kayaking? Excuse me? A beginner shouldn't do that! But the only thing I see about paddling one is... nothing. He doesn't even mention that you need one.

  • Never did I think someone could ramble on about flat water kayaking. You should try whitewater kayaking.

  • This is mistitled - it's about the variance between types of kayaks, nothing about how to paddle
