The kayak can wait. I'm getting in the plane.

Wow I’ve been kayaking on and off for 40 years and never have seen this technique before. It’s genius. I’m trying it out ASAP!

3:21 "...and move your booty on into the boat." classic! the best onboarding/offboarding kayak description i've ever seen. thank you!

That was marvelously done! Good clear explanation. When I kayak with my girls we do something like this. But with more hands on multiple paddles. Once one is in, she holds her sister’s kayak still. Then they take off and leave me to fend for myself….kids today!

for someone who has never done this method or even knew how to get in my kayak from shore in a calm and not akward way, this is a step by step and easy to understand tutorial. sometimes people who think they are experts at things don't remember what they didn't know when they started.

wow~ nice tip putting paddle like that!! never thought of this

I have seen a few videos that show how to get in and out of a kayak. This is the best one: very clear and visual. Thank you so much.

I have seen more video , but I think this technique seems to be easier and useful, I will try that when I will get my kayak , which I have ordered. Thank you to share with us.

Great information! Good job! 1st time kayaker here.. love it

I'm a beginner, and this technique works well. I'm well into the 200's lbs, and there's no problem with the paddle. Carbon Fiber is very strong.

Thanks for posting... this will really help me get started!

Damn. She makes it look easy!! lol! I always end up IN the water...even doing everything "right."

Excellent step by step instructions!

Very well done. I'm an elementary school teacher and appreciate how clear the steps are. Thank you! Sounds like a place I would like to visit with our family.

Please do - book early so you can get the dates and the rooms you'd like in the B&B! Alaska is AWESOME!

Greetings from Poland, thank you for an excellent presentation.

We are getting ready to receive our first kayak. This is most excellent. Thank you very much.

You made that look so simple, but I believe my husband can do this because he is strong. Great video.

Good job demonstrating this.

Just started kayaking. Your awesome thank you

This advice was excellent and will always copy. Thanks 😊

Thanks! Just did my first kayaking last weekend, now trying to learn as much as possible - I'm hooked!

Hey...Made my day with that entering and leaving the boat using your paddle. MY only problem: I'm in a big lake with big waves. If I put the boat sideways to the incoming waves I get drenched! Well..back to the drawing board!

Cool vid. Fall is coming and I still want to use my yak. Need to stay dry. Never thought about putting the kayak sideways along the shore like that. Good tip

Beautiful background, and very informative. You should put together more videos!

Great advice I learned a few things I never knew, thank you.

Nice vid, any tips are great, just bought a Kayak tonight, after having a great time in Canada using one. Hoping to get a few shots before winter ❄️.

Got to try that! Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Look at that beautiful skywagon in the background. Thanks for the advise. I've been kayaking for years and nobody ever showed me this trick, and I certainly never thought of it.

Great demonstration! It will be very useful advice for me, as I am overweight with joint problems, and was worried about how much trouble I will have getting in and out of a kayak, but am looking forward to getting one and peacefully floating around and enjoying being out in nature.

perfect, thanks and greetings from austria

Wow ! This is very useful thank you !!! 👍

Thank you so much as a 64 year old male I’ve been attracted to kayaking but thought I’d only end up facedown body floating and arms flailing all about in the water! My mere thoughts have been for years paddling for serenity and pleasure in my local county pounds we have here in our county. No one until my latest research have ever offered a wetless method of mount dismount of a Kayak before. Many thanks. PS: I will follow up on your lodge whereabouts when I’m finished here.

Thanks for the comments and enjoy your paddling! Our lake is out of commission till spring.... currently frozen and perfect for xc skate skiing!

For a folks with wood paddles or who are a little heavier than the lady in this video, you need to have your kayak in deeper water so that it floats without hitting the bottom of the shore. If you sit on a paddle as demonstrated here, there is a very good chance you will break your paddle.

Explorer Mike If you use a paddle that breaks when you sit on it, then it's not fit for purpose and likely to break in use. I would put it drive face down though.

Thank you. Great job. Is so easy when you know what you're doing

This was great! Thank you!!

Good common sense information aimed at novice paddlers. Entering and exiting a floating kayak can be very difficult so supporting parts of the hull in shallow water can help a great deal. Keeping feet dry is an added benefit.

I had doubts about this video. Pure genius.

That's awesome, looks easy enough.

thanks for this tip, I think it is gonna spare me many awkward situations hahaha

Best video that has my attention and I've learned from!

I'm new to kayaking and I try search for get in and out kayak but never found anything helpful until KZread recommend your video. Thanks for this video and thanks KZread recommend peace enjoy kayaking 😎

Thank you for this informative video. True the audio is low, but I had no trouble hearing.

Great tip, great tutorial, thank you!

Yesterday I fell in the river trying to get into a kayak my 2nd time .this is a really interesting video thx 👍

Getting in and out of the boat was done well, but her land-based demonstration she had the paddle upside down.

Never seen this before... brilliant!

What an excellent and informative video! Thank You!

Good video. Thanks for sharing. God bless.

I enjoyed this video thanks for posting this instructional video

This is genius! Thank you for the best method I have seen in person or online.

Thx from Finland👍 New tricks for me..

Great video !

Great video! Nice lady and cool plane!

Nice video I will watch it again

Great video!!! Thank you

Great info! Thanks!

My best friend, Enjoyed watching this video my friend Really awesome views Thank you Stay connected

Thnx indeed. Wish had taken getting in and out more seriously. Would have saved the embarrassment of falling in the water and getting soaked to my drawers when our kayak group was about to set off for a long kayaking on Thames.

Well,I'll be dam'd,impressive.And I just bought waterproof foot covers!

I just read the past comments. I am sorry for the stupidity of people just trying to find something to criticize. You are giving a tutorial for your guests, if some can find some tips from it, great!! If not, move on!!!! You did a wonderful job explains your procedure. Where is Bear Lake Lodgings anyway?

We go on small rivers. Sometimes there is current where we need to get out. I would like to have demonstration of how to exit when current is trying to grab the boat.

You will need to look to another KZread videographer to help you with that challenge. Our videos are to help our guests using watercraft on our lake at our B&B.

Thank you so much for this!!!

Thanks, great tip.

Thanks! We just got kayaks, and was wondering how heck we’re supposed to get in and out without getting wet or muddy. Know I know!!!

Nice video and a good way to get in and out of a kayak. One little tip... don't push or sit on the middle of the paddle (especially a carbon or fiberglass paddle).

Very cool. Thanks.

Good tip thanks.

Excellent thank you you so much.

I love your plane..since the covid crisis I have downloaded a flight simulator and in the virtual world i have that plane

Nice tutorial.

Excellent!

great, thank you!

The technique is for getting in and out of the kayak - that's the main idea of the video. Our B&B guests have few kayak skills and this is very basic!

Thank you.

I'll give this a try, for sure, but with me at 240 lbs, I think my paddle would be a bit too flimsy. My default technique has been to, first, never enter from a dock because you'll always go swimming guaranteed!. I always enter in water so shallow that when I step into the kayak, it bottoms out, like you're standing on the ground. Then get the other foot in and squat down and aim for the seat! Really not a good option with gravel or rock bottoms though.

Thank you!

It was a great tutorial thank you for showing it. And as for anyone who wants to criticize you for it. Well let's hope they get their feet wet

Nice coach

Me, I always use a low dock, like yours, if available. I gave a thumbs UP cause you said “Booty”...

I'm new to kayaking and my kayak has a skid (Challenger K1). Using your method, once in the kayak the skid would be pushed into the mud. Does this mean the only way to get into my kayak is push it further out and walk into the water to enter the kayak?

Awesome thank you

Thank you

I'll stick with my pirogue. This seems like a lot of work!

Great tip. Thanks!

Thanks!!

From 3:12 to 3:24, that will give you the key body positioning/paddle positioning/body movements demonstration to enter the kayak.

Only issue I have is this is a plastic kayak drill if I did this with my fibreglass one I’d be cursing the pressure fractures this works fine with a fully floating kayak so why teach it partially beached on what sounded like rocks. That said the use of the drip catchers as a lock is a good detail

@dgrfsthrgsergwrtghasefq

If your fiberglass kayak pressure fractures doing this you bought a cheap junk fiberglass kayak.

Most impressive thing here is landing that plane on that pier

What if I don't have a dock with a brown locker past the plane?

Love it

How come if you paddled using the wrong side of the paddle, you may break it, but not when you're sitting on it doing the 3 points contact getting into the kayak? By the way love your bootty, they're just fine.😊🐴🎃Nice video too.

Awesome

Thanks
