#1 Rule of Kayaking

Adam and I head up to Wilson Creek for some race lap practice. Instead, we meet Matt and Matt for a super fun day on the water, a PFD Lap for Matt Duece and a revisit of the #! Rule of Kayaking!

best thing i like about your videos is that you show how to paddle safe with great rescues

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks a ton! We try!

[@johnlemelle]

I have watched countless amounts of your videos (enjoy all of them) but this one ranks as one of the most entertaining…

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks a ton John! It was a fun one to make!

[@bluesideup007]

Whitewater kayaking must be easy if there's only one rule. Thanks for the adventure and inadvertent lessons.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

he he!! Thanks bluesideup!

[@underthatch]

You'll probably remember that run far longer than all those super clean runs. Fun times 👍

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thats for sure!! Thanks!

[@KentuckyWoodsman]

Rule #1 Never forget Rule #1! Cool video!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Chris!

[@michaelmoser7219]

Great edit! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Michael!

[@stuartbeezley5297]

That Verus creekboat is probably the worst beginner boat to paddle. Another option like a Z3 or Machno would serve that man well.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

I hear ya!

[@theH2experience]

Another good one Pete. It seems that #1 Rule of Kayaking is very similar to #1 Rule of Canoeing. We still gotta get down that way and get this lap in with you one of these days when things can line up... that is as long as you don't mind some open boaters jangling around with ya! - Heath

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks H2E! Lets do it!

[@MarieJanssen74]

Nice touch with Rez Band at the end!

[@nathanking1110]

First rule of kayaking “don’t talk about kayaking” 💪 😤

Sorry I missed the premier, but watched it a day late, and I gotta say.....great video!!! I'd love to paddle Wilson one of these days. If you were there with your encouragement, beta, and that infectious laugh, that would make it even better. SYOTR.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Brad! Glad to have you along! Lets go!

[@ericrobinson5056]

How many miles have you gone in a kayak all together?? Probably more than I could count its crazy to think about that 🤔

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Man, there is no telling at this point...many many thousands

[@bashy2.0]

Oh, i forgot to ask, is it possible to purchase your decals, please?

[@RiverKingsKayak]

sure thing....@RiverKingPete on Venmo, $1 per sticker desired and leave your address as a memo / comment

[@perfectleveladventurefishi619]

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks PLAF!

[@bashy2.0]

Nice video, i dont think ive heard so many screams on a video before lol :) BTW, a short while back i mentioned that watching your sweep roll video helped me do a roll, well after 2 months of not trying again i went to the poll Saturday just gone and did 2 rolls out of 2 tries , well chuffed, thank you once again :) here's one of the rolls, i forgot to film the 2nd much smoother roll, always the case lol, kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJiYhK17o62tbaM

Thats what Im talking about bashy!! Thanks and congrats!

[@gadgetman_nz4092]

#1 Rule of Kayaking: No dear, that is not new kayak. It's been in the shed for years. But since you mentioned it I just spotted ... A great duck and new opportunity in one fell swoop!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

LOL!

[@moskic153]

to be honest rule that i see in kayak be brave but don't be stupid and if you decide you skip some fragments it's ok don't be rude to people who has less experience

[@RiverKingsKayak]

I dont understand I guess...

[@moskic153]

nothing personal you video was cool and fun i just text about waht i see on river in my life . also made a comment at 3 a.m so yeah i made gibrrish :D@@RiverKingsKayak

[@jam7547]

what is the #1 rule.. ACA course said safety first...

[@RiverKingsKayak]

I guess you just need to watch the video!

[@jam7547]

@@RiverKingsKayak if I miss it I apologize.. .. I will admit that the longer videos I lose concentration .. and I fast forward again my apologies

[@jam7547]

watch the video again I. think I caught on... what resolution do you film at... great video like always.. your videos encourage me to get back on river 3 surgeries last year and corpal tunnel surgery (wrist)and cubital tunnel surgery surgery (elbow) next week .. any river will be great

[@RiverKingsKayak]

@jam7547 right on! I usually film in 2.7k 60 fps
