Thats because it's my old Revo....how's thing been, Eric?

My recommendations for what its worth is peddle like a mo' fo and forget the paddle. One hand on the steering and the other on the yak. Of course time it right. The last time I paddled instead of peddled, I ended up getting hooked by my Tady as I got tossed in the surf. My problem that day was that I left the rudder up, but un-did the bungie. Surf was really too big (should have just got back in the truck) that day and the force of the swell deployed my rudder and the next thing I knew was that I was going sideway's up the face and then an unexpected tumble as I got sucked back over the crest (never knew the rudder could be forced down - snapped the rudder pin, too). Just lock that rudder in and go.
