Securing gear for surf launch?

strap them to the side of your kayak and if you flip the only thing you'll lose is your hat

What was he doing? Launching or landing? I feel like he was just sitting there waiting to get his *** kicked......

He is I and I is He.

The size of the surf in the video is a bit deceiving but I will tell you this much, there was a story published about the other guys that made it out and had to land in surf that made what's on the video look like a flat day in LJ.

Go pro does it no justice.

No fear of anything like sharks or mystical creatures but I do fear losing or damaging gear. After learning a few costly lessons here and there I now take my time when launching.

10-4. I've only been through the surf once so I really dont know what a bad day looks like. My first launch and landing was full of anxiety and visions of failure/lost gear. Everything went ok that day, but im sure I'll have that experience eventually...
