Here is a list of goals that every paddler should have at all times regardless of their paddling level or number of years on the water.

Adventure Water Sport: Surf Kayaking is an Adventure Water Sport
When most people think of water sports their minds usually first go toward motorized activities such as jet skiing or water skiing. Surfing will usually rank up there pretty highly also. Very few people would think to rank surf kayaking up there as an adventure water sport. This is ironic since the skill, athletic ability, and excitement that is a part of surf kayaking makes it one of the most thrilling yet underlooked adventure water sports of our time.
