The jury is out on leashes. Better to teach paddlers to maintain control of their paddle, rather than put their faith in a leash. Paddling whitewater, we don't use leashes...why should the sea be any different?

Thanks for this.
I'm mostly whitewater but this will definitely be useful if i ever miss my roll in the ocean.

Im so tired of seeing three hundred and fifty variations of one rescue. People change a word in the title and then they publish a book on it. Week after week its the same rescues in magazines, its the same videos for the same rescues....

I like this, well done, paddle should be on a leash though. You'd have fun otherwise in heavy atlantic swell.
-
Would recommend the swimmer not let go of their paddle!

Looks great, but what about when fully laden?
I credited rock and sea productions in all the places I could.
Let me know if you want me to add another link back to you.

This technique is okm is mild weather but would let shit loads of water back in when there are big swells.I doubt a novice would do it this way easily.If this boat was full of water in big swells thelefter would hurt his back lifting kayak and probably be off centre and could fall out.

Hi OneI;
Hi One I;
a couple of guys have written to say the rescue works fine in rough water.
Swell doesn't put water into a cockpit, breaking waves do.
All you have to do is turn the swimmer's kayak over a moment to dump the water. With the bow high, all the water bounces off the rear bulkhead.
If you have a video showing that the rescue doesn't work in swell, I'd love to see it!
