Introducing 'Skyaking': skydiving with a kayak




Paddling across the sky, 13,000ft up in a kayak has become a new daredevil craze dubbed 'Skyaking'.


Quote from the article:

Miles Daisher turned the extreme sport of skydiving on its head after deciding to jump out of a plane in equipment normally used only in water.

Mr Daisher then swoops in at 50mph and lands on the water in spectacular fashion.



His antics are showcased in a new 3D film on skydiving, BASE jumping, wingsuit flying and Skyaking.

The 40-year-old, from Twin Falls, Idaho, decided to put a twist into has favourite pastime when looking for new ideas to take it even more extreme.

These pictures 13,000 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) over beautiful Lake Tahoe show his efforts.
