Fortunately I did that when I started working on a bow rudder turn.  My
left and right side are pretty even.

In a few weeks the outdoor club that I'm affiliated with is going to do 
their first pool session.  Last year I really got my onside roll solid during
those pool sessions.  Although that was in a whitewater boat I think I
only missed two rolls all summer.   This year I'll work on my offside roll,
sculling, and my re-entry roll.
