What am I doing wrong? The side reentry is tricky for me. I prefer the somersault reentry with the kayak completely inverted. You get under the kayak and face the stern with your head inside the kayak (you can breath the air in the kayak). Once set up, you do a somersault and push your feet over your head and into the kayak. You end up sitting in the kayak in an inverted position. The somersault is a tad tricky with the PFD, but once you're in the kayak the PFD forces you into the seat. The next tricky bit is getting your paddle set up and doing the roll.
