[Paddlewise] Off-side roll with a feathered paddle

I was wondering if anyone else happens to do what I often do when rolling on
my off-side.  By off-side, I mean with a right-hand control paddle, setting
up on the starboard side.  I tend to flip the paddle just before I'm
completely up into a low brace (elbow high, forearm vertical, C to C roll).

With a 90 degree feather, the paddle tends to dive a little right at the end
of my sweep (during a roll).  BTW, I haven't swam as the result of missing a
roll in many, many years.  If I miss on one side, I automatically go to the
other side unless I'm in surf (where I always roll to the ocean side of
course).

I don't always do this, but it seems to really work well when the hip snap
ain't quite cutting it... just wondering if any of you do it too.

Cheers,
Dave
