This video real helped us young bucks and family/friends understand the score the system. Thanks for putting this video out there !

[@fluffyriverrat3535]

So sick! I dream of being able to do all these moves someday!

[@heatherhuth1]

Love this video, the descriptions, and the scoring info!

[@josswolf98]

I’d absolutely love to learn playboating. The only thing I’ve never understood about trick sports in general but especially kayaking, is refusing to use the same names for the same moves. Things like Space Godzilla followed by a complex mathematical description was just a little hard to absorb the first time through. Absolutely love trick bibles, we’ll done.

Will there be another video with wave moves? Donkey flip, helix, air screw etc?

[@xelgodis80085]

idk how I found this, but y'all have a lot of names for "roll"
