G'Day, I've just spent a pleasant summer of weekends at Balmoral Beach, in Sydney Australia, learning a bit about rolling and reentry and rolling. Last week I took the roll into deep water but decided against attempting a reentry and roll. The problem is what do you do after a reentry once you are back up with a cockpit full of water and a spray skirt to put on and chop hitting you from every side? Is there any alternative to putting the spray skirt on under water? I prefer to reenter with the boat completely upside down as this is a smooth fast movement and you can take a break breathing inside the cockpit. I'ld welcome hints because I'm pretty slow putting it on above water let alone submerged! All the best, PeterO *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
