Well worth the money and time!
by Mike (West Coast)
If you own a kayak or are thinking of purchasing one, buy or rent this video. The info is well presented as well as fun and entertaining! Good stuff!

Sea Worthy
by T. A. Verica (California)
This video is a simple but careful and informative guide for those interested in pursuing the joy of kayaking. I recommended to anyone whose hears the call and wants to experience the passion of kayaking on the sea to learn the most effective techniques and while keeping safety in mind.
5/5
Very helpful video
by Pamela Grant (West Coast)
Show me How Videos has produced another great "how-to" in "Sea Kayaking Fundamentals". This was a great introduction for me, a newcomer to kayaking. I found it well scripted and easy to follow. Looking forward to more!

Sea Kayaking Fundamentals
by Joanne Showalter
We found this video to be not only educational and informative,
but enjoyable for our entire family. I'm looking forward to purchasing
Peter Casson's other video.
5/5
Lacking in the Essentials
by Timothy Williams (Atlantic Ocean, USA)
This video appears on a stage already well represented by some top performers such as Nigel Foster, Wayne Horodowich (University of Sea Kayaking), Ken Whiting, and Kent Ford. These kayak instructors have provided well-produced, professionally edited videos that draw from their rich personal experiences and from sound teaching method. They cover the treated topics well, and give rich detail, important in the video format for later review. They all use step-by-step progression, and model techniques and strokes in a clear, slow, and expert manner. I highly recommend them.
This video, on the other hand, lacks the polish readily apparent in the above authors' works. It is unclear who the author of this presentation is, but it's doubtful they have much training as a teacher. The techniques presented are done so with a lack of crispness and detail necessary when teaching, and especially needed when addressing a novice or beginner to the sport.
I found one of the most distracting elements to be the music soundtrack, which is a combination of honky-tonk piano and bizarre sounds that lend themselves more to a children's cartoon program than an instructional video. Turning the music down then prevents one from hearing the voice track, necessary in this form of presentation.
This video's producers might do well to review some of the above-mentioned authors' DVD series (available at Amazon) and attempt to copy them on their next attempt. This video might have been more impressive a dozen years ago, when sea kayaking video instruction was in its infancy. It just can't compete for value as an instructional tool in its present form, with so many excellent competitors available.
