When Maligiaq and John Heath were in the Seattle/Tacoma area some time ago John needed underwater footage of Maligiaq's rolls and so we used my swimming pool to get it done. An underwater videographer was hired by John and a full afternoon was spent documenting what happens underwater. The good news is that a friend (Les Uhrich) and I got a full two hours of up close and detailed footage (from above water) of 33 of Maligiaq's rolls as well as sequential black and white photographs of a number of rolls. The bad news is that, as a favor to John, I won't duplicate the video. What I will do, if anyone is interested, is let someone scan the B&W photo sequence of a couple of rolls that I find most useful (it can be a "teaser" for when John's newest video comes out). The rolls I have in mind are the "broken arm roll" and the "one arm extended paddle roll". Any volunteers to do some scanning and posting? Also, I am willing to do a TR on paddling the West Coast of Scotland but it will take awhile to find the time to do it.
