Title: The Definition of STUPID
Post by: JohnCyr on September 28, 2010, 11:35:21 AM
The guy is new to the sport.
Cold Weater paddling in Bermuda shorts.
Guy doesnt even know how to roll...even in flat water.
Has a leash attached to him, the paddle, and the boat!?
Runs pretty big water for a beginner.
And he is paddling alone.
What was he thinking!?

Having balls is not all you need for paddling.. it takes comon sense, basic skills and planning as well..

Yeah... This one has been commented on at length. For instance, in the first-person segments (e. g. at 0:52), you can see from the bumps in the skirt that he's paddling with his knees together, not in the thigh hooks... Big balls maybe, but the brain a goose.

Speaking of goose, that statue is in Wawa.
