Re: [Paddlewise] Rolling a K-lite

It is generally known that foldables with air-sponsons are very difficult to roll. On the other hand, they don't turn over in rough seas easily.

But some people have done it. See:

In the July/August number of Kanu Magazin (in German) there was a photo of a Feathercraft Klondike (a double!) being rolled. With air-sponsons deflated, they indicated. 

But these are rare, exceptional performances.
