this spring break we went to the beach and we rented a kayak. it was my first time going kayaking so I was excited! me and my friend went into the ocean with it. I noticed that our kayak wasn't straight so I told my friend to paddle to make it straight. because #1 kayak rule, always keep the kayak head towards the water to avoid waves flipping us. as we were making it straight, we saw a big 🌊 wave approaching us so I told my friend to hurry the fuck up lol. we didn't make the kayak straight in time so when the wave hit us, our kayak flipped and we fell out into the water. I lost my $1 dollar tree glasses. we had trouble getting back on but we eventually did. I thought I was dead lol.
must be the best feeling paddling in the open ocean!
Minute 7:59 Why did he wear a shirt of a spanish club called 'Los cuervos de Pravia'?
You ever in the US near Boston and need to borrow a Surf Ski let me know I I'm sure I could hook you up. Looks like a sweet paddle!
Love this vlog <3
Ben were you wearing a purple skirt and a black bra at around 9:05?
Wicked footage! What go pro mount was that?
Epic man! Took me away from work for a bit. Can't wait to get in the water. Cheers brother!
Sorry of being late but you should train and try to go to the Olympics again it would be awesome
'Carousel' by Kyogi has got be my favorite vee-log song,Instantly knew you'd  play that when I saw the title.
The surfskis/kayaking run was insanely sick. Woah

When you was kayaking it looked like if it were a 3D game

You need another GoPro for the front of the Kayak, mixing it up. This is sweet footage though. 🙂

Awesome vlog! Love seeing you kayaking in the ocean, makes me want to do it now! Also really liked the flares of light you used while using your GoPro!
9:10 looks like he is wearing a bra
What I meant to say was; great shots of the sun in the surfy-part. It was quiet nostalgic for me. Much appreciated. Thank you Benjamin.
The two last seconds with the sin in the camera was great!
Hello, Ben. Great video…..loved the ride.
The last time I went sea kayaking off the east coast of Canada it was the morning after a buddy's bachelor party. Â I lasted about 30 minutes before the night caught up to me. Â Bad scene. Â
You're day looked much more enjoyable, Ben!
I am absolutely OBSESSED with the clips you post off your gopro whenever you do water sports. Stunning footage, and an excellent vlog!
yo I live in Fish Hoek! Dude Ben can i come surf with you sometime that would be amazing!
Thanks for explaining about your ocean ride. Â It looked amazing!
