At first I thought I had merely wasted 7 minutes of my life watching this idiot and his idiot friend make the most ridiculous kayak launch recovery video ever. I then decided to watch some of his other videos........ Seriously, who mounts a rear view mirror on there kayak? I still cannot believe that this guy is serious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_k_8I...RWXTUHVtzv0p0g

That's funny as hell! Maybe the guy likes to look at himself in the mirror. Possibly the 3 or 4 cameras that he has mounted is just not enough for him to watch his own "mojo". rotfl2.gif

The trailer appears to be a folding utility trailer that has various wooden supports added to it. I had a folding trailer for many years, and occasionally used it to haul two kayaks. That was not an optimal use for the 6-ft long bed. It had been made in the USA and was reasonably heavy gauge steel. My guess is that the video shows a lower-quality steel imported trailer (similar to http://www.harborfreight.com/950-lb-...res-42709.html) that would rust pretty easily. It seems that the owner is reluctant to back any part of the trailer (except an inch of the tires) into the water. That leads to the exaggerated loading situation.

I agree that this is a potentially annoying ramp scenario.

Really... I don't know about this guy... there is something obviously wrong..
He is wearing blue Crocs before Memorial Day (video Published on Apr 29, 2013).
Everybody knows it's neon colored Crocs until Memorial Day.

Pretty funny. Just wondering if he still has room for a clown horn on that rig after he adds the fuzzy dice.
