This thread reminds me of a question. I learned to roll via a C to C and later picked up the sweep roll. However, I don't like the way the sweep works because the sweep of the paddle causes pivoting of the kayak as a whole, so that when I emerge, the bow is not pointed in exactly the same direction as when I started. I assumed a small amount of pivoting was unavoidable in the sweep, but maybe it's just me: could more experienced sweepers comment? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sat Nov 27 1999 - 08:00:06 PST
