» 37 Failures in Communication

  1. Tom says:

    That’s not a fail, that’s a wave loop!

  2. Anonymous says:

    That’s a surf pop-out, or wave loop.

  3. Rosie says:

    Ok, I would have called it a sommersault, but it’s definitely not a fail!

  4. Zhar says:

    People who don’t paddle but comment on paddling technique = fail

  5. Anonymous says:

    that’s a nice wave
    but an old boat, a wave sport, but what kind?

  6. anon says:

    This entry is a fail! The action depicted in the photo is not a fail.

  7. Anonymous says:

    Yeah… you really need to paddle to talk smack here. This guy is surfin’ and probably lovin’ every minute of it!

  8. Mike J says:

    Non-FAIL!

    Wave WIN!

  9. Mike says:

    Short kayaks like that are supposed to do flips, they’re designed so that it is incredibly easy to flip them upright again. Long kayaks are much faster, but can’t turn as quickly, and if you flip one, it’ll be tricky to right it again.

    • Buck says:

      Length has nothing to do with difficulty of rolling up. Short, wide, boxy boats can be harder to roll than long, slim, rounder ones. I’ve surfed waves at least twice this size in my 18′ (5.8 m) long Mariner II, and it is easier to roll after flipping than some short, wide whitewater boats. OTOH, it’s pretty hard to keep going straight down the wave, and no way can I cut back.

  10. deliciousHam says:

    pretty small foam pile for trying loops…
    split-wheel win, or an about to loop fail?

  11. the gudge says:

    totally intentional move, the only fail is: the guy is trying to loop a piece of S**t boat on a pathetic wave. Try that move on a 6ft (12ft face) wave and you’ll WIN

  12. yoyo says:

    Front loop u FAIL

  13. Ёгурт says:

    this is not a fail i also practice canoening and we have such triks

  14. Paddle team says:

    This is a total win. To even try to flip a boat of that size/volume in a wave that small is a win, and the fact that he even got that far is amazing. FAIL BLOG TAKE THIS OFF! Sorry to revisit a dead thread.

  15. Joker says:

    That’s not a fail. That’s just sad.

  16. elias says:

    that isn’t a fail…. he is gong to do a front flip and you need to do what the guys is doing on the picture to do this flip…. NO FAIL its actualy a win

  17. gradient says:

    this is also called an endo

  18. elias says:

  22. kabuto says:

    Vertical kayaking: Because horizontal kayaking is not challenging enough.

  23. steve says:

    That’s called a loop, and is most definitely NOT a fail. Whomever posted that as such is an idiot who knows nothing about kayaking.
