Hi, I have been looking for a tow behind floating board that would have straps, velcro, for food, water, whatever. Is there such a thing made out there?
Thanks
Chris
Typically, when going through the breakers, I’ll just use the kickboard as a kick board and walk/kick through the breakers. This assumes you are mainly going through the breakers from the beach to get to the smoother rollers beyond the break.
And if the kickboard does flip, it’s no big deal, as long as you have properly lashed your provisions. Also, you’ll probably notice the extra resistance if it does flip. Just flip it back when you get beyond the break.
As for using a lifeguard “can”, I did look at these, but I couldn’t think of a way to keep the can from rolling bottle side down. Now if someone invented a can with a water proof compartment for provisions… Also, being a cheapskate it was inexpensive to MacGyver this tow behind out of materials found around many swimmers homes.
