Most of these pedal in techniques work to get you out of through the kill zone as fast as possible. What u need to prepare for is when the sets are so big and close together that you'll inevitably get caught, having no paddle in hand is not the thing to do and your rudder is pretty much useless at that point. Whether you paddle or pedal in you definitely need your paddle in hand so you can brace yourself as the wave takes you sideways.
