Well, at least you are OK. The last time I was at La Jolla I saw a guy get knocked out. Literally a kayak to the face--not cool.

I know it goes against the grain, but I often come in with my fins in place. I know that the extra speed has saved me more than once. If you feel that you are going to tag the bottom, push and pull the fins so that they are flat against the bottom of the kayak, it you do hit bottom it won't be so bad.

Keep trying.
