-<WRAP centeralign>​+<WRAP indent><WRAP centeralign> ​Bray-Dunes - Nieuwpoort. This video shows a skilled sea kayaker. The conditions and shore break are not for beginner surfskiers, but a skilled surfskier with good preparation and safety support would love such a downwinder. Northseakayak posted 3 versions of this video on his youtube channel, maybe your favorite depends on which music you like better?
