single kayak hydra 350

had my first successful kite + kayak run yesterday .
wind was going steady bellow 10mph at my back while i was kayaking, so i pulled over on a beach and pulled out my hydra put the kid in the back of the kayak (ya know to steer) and jumped in and away we went!!! we got going pretty fast... way faster than paddling ..
we made it a few hundred yards then got rolled over in a large wake from a power boat.. wake + side pull from kite + 2 people in a one seat kayak = not so much balance.. i was lucky enough to have a friend catch it on her iphone.. i know its a facebook vid but that is what it is.... but i thought id share if it works.
