Sea Kayaking: A Different Kind of Race | National Geographic

- Опубліковано 12 жов 2024
- Typically, sea kayakers dream of calm waters and soft tailwinds. It's preferable to navigate around waves and whirlpools. A team of young adventure kayakers redraws the sport's horizon by seeking out the sea's most turbulent places, called tidal races, and diving right in.

Amazing! This is what I call sea kayaking
LOVED THIS PLEASE DO MORE!!!
Great to see not all State side paddlers have huge boats with rudders!!( joking) good work guys... Ever looked paddling my homeland, Orkney and the Pentland Firth, North of Scotland? up to 16 KNTS tide recorded here. lots of overfalls.. I would gladly paddle with you guys... :)
Impressive kayaking!
Love it! Beautiful. I'm stoked to film some big whirlpool action at Max ebb Skook soon. Just trying to get some other THR boys into it!
Skookumchuck narrows in BC...this is one of the most famous playboating waves in the world! Must have been hard to find hahaha
Gran vídeo
Amazing! I tried some kayakin in Atlantic Ocean, waves weren't that big at the time it's just super Fun!
I'm so there!
I'm not sure how far you guys have to go to get to these races, but it seems like a sweet spot for a playboat, using your sea kayak is just making your life hard.
Well I thought I was gonna die on my second time out on my Hobie Compass out in Palos Verdes California didn't know if I was gonna get out the currents 😭 God bless these crazy guys hope they have fun.
What happened?
Epic
awesome
Newfoundlands surfers. Bertgs add an eliment where the ocean bottom can come at you from below, they can split from above, rupture and surge sideways. Then there is the normal stuff, Wind Waves sub zero water temperatures, pointy rocks etc.
Looks like crazy fun, will try to get there next summer
Very cool! this makes me want to use my touring kayak in places it's not meant to be. Just for kicks
Hardcore spot!
beautiful video and boats love tiderace i got a tahe marine but think a tiderace might be a future purchase
WooooW
awesome =D ^^
Amazin
is this the song from little big planet? btw awesome vid!! keep it up :D
Some of those waves with no pile at all would not be surfable in a playboat, and others probably not. You also have to factor in that there is a long paddle out to these places.
I am sure the boat could handle the pounding but I know there are places my Capella's hull speed can't keep up with the water flow. The Exxplorer is a bit better. I know my smaller boats could go through it but surf those long not steep high speed waves. I know my T Slalom couldn't , perhaps a larger flat presentation of a surf built kayak could.
Hull speed is completely irrelevant once you've caught a wave and are planing, whether it's a playboat or a sea kayak. You're way above hull speed then. It's pretty easy to catch a wave in any sea kayak, including a Capella. Keeping the boat going straight and upright is a whole different story.
Sea Kayaking Fuck Yeah!
i wanna see these guys try the Congo river on for size. That'll ought to make them rethink their careers.
A good video,
however, too many image changes, it looks like TV
sweet
nice video ! why u guy dont paddle a whitewater boat ! awesome spot where is it
Skookumchuck narrows...one of the most famous play boating waves in the world
very brave but dangerous too
@PigLvl3 this is awesome
What kayaks are they using?
Sea Kayaks.
FIRST COMMMENT, and may i be the topped like to say this video is insane and amazing -Thumbs Up if you agree
You have to be crazy to do some thing like this in risky waters.
Where is the haystack at 1:38???
mint, I would love to give it a try,but then again I would die 😎
can you tell me the music on the last part? i kinda like it =) what title?
Speed... Not sure a play boat would have the hull speed for some of this stuff. Other spots a play boat rules, normal surfing for example.
I hope nobody who might think of trying sea kayaking are not put off by this film. Many enjoy sea kayaking with skills nowhere near this kind of water state, me included.
2:57
The noble fisherman. Just for being him he should receive half the worlds riches.
balls of steel
yeah playboat ftw
1:18 WTF
Bloody 1:30 advert before the video!!! way too long!!! You should be able to skip it after 10 secs or something!!
he looks and sounds like Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater
Wish I could play drums half as well as him. ;)
E agora broder
Túnel do tempo,
1 person didn't make it through kayaking ... oh wait, that doesn't make sense..
I would shit a brick 😀
Three people shouldn't have started watching in the first place.
