Amphibious Man is extremely well done. If I recall correctly, it was originally done professionally for Danish TV. Quite a video. We Western wimpy weaklings will no doubt take note that the principal paddler in the video and his comrades all paddle without gloves or pogies amidst the floating ice and icy waters. The new Maligiaq video that is available from John Heath is better done than the previous one, which was shot at the Paddler's Retreat. This has better footage including underwater shots of the rolling as well as good explanations by Maligiaq of his paddle stroke and other manuevers. I recall reading in Anorak last year about people being mystified by the angle of Maligiaq's blade in the forward stroke. This aspect is well shown and explained. Even while he is being quite serious in his presentation, some of Maligiaq's mischieveness peeks through. ralph diaz -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ralph Diaz . . .
