I still don't understand the preoccupation with beaching the ski- dosn't this put stress on the boat and leave the potential for hair-line cracks -which I don't want when I am 2k's out from home? I think I will go for jumping out- I never was a good surfer.
Agree, I battle also with beaching and I now swim most of the times!

Dude you don't need to beach your kayak, once u r ankle deep then that should be sufficient to jump off, sure the foamies are small enough by then, the other alternative is to buy a Hunterski Kayak, made from tough plastic, no fear of hairline cracks!!!! :kaykak

I get dumped well before its ankle deep.
However, my coach has been working on me. I got the right coach, I just didn't listen properly and hence got wiped.
