A lot of stuff there, but the top 2 I can think of are: 1) An Outback, along with any other high railed kayak, can be very difficult to remount and should be practiced on. 2) Swimming back to your yak should not be done freestyle or doggy style fully clothed. Keeping your head, and lifting your arms out of the water wastes too much energy. Lay back and do the back paddle you probably learned as a kid (arms out to the sides and push back).

Sight Fishing on the Outback is not in my near future. Nice one Jorge

La Jolla is a great place for a quick dip. No paddle harness? Old guys know better.

NO harness necessary. whenever paddle is dropped in water & floats away from yak, u just pedal after it & pick it up.

i've never used a paddle harness, and never lost a paddle in 10 yrs of yakking.

Ok, I stand corrected, but you would not have had to swim back to boat if you had leash.

I learned that I need to get my A$$ to LJ - because that blue water looked AWESOME!!

1. To turn down volume before hitting play button
2. Your rudder was not deployed
3. You are training for the US Gymnastics Team
4. I will start thinking about rigging up a kayak leash. A lot of good a Mirage Drive will do me if it drifts away

(1) never ever remove you'r vest while wearing waders ( unless urinating ) . (2) always wear a belt . if you had been wearing a belt the likely hood of the waders slipping down and reducing you'r leg movement would be reduced , let alone reducing the water intake . and if you were wearing the pfd and the waders filled up , becoming submerged is unlikely . also doing a recovery on open water alone is something that should be practiced . more than likely this is a recent video and the outcome could have been different if alone in winter conditions , in rough water and body temperature dropping rapidly . i love you jorge . nice work on the camera .
