[Paddlewise] Kayak Rolling Cross Reference

Inspired by the recent comments on rolling and the lack of 
consistency in names etc, I decided to try creating a 
web page with as many rolls as possible listed.  My
desire at this point is to document the name, origin,
type, source (book, magazine or web site) and brief comments
on different rolls.  I've assembled a few (approx 28 so far
with duplicates) on the following web site:

http://members.rogers.com/michaeldaly2/kayakRollingXref.htm

Most are from Hutchinson's and Dutky's books.

What I'd like is to find info about rolls not on this list.

I don't need any references to the rolls in the last five
years' worth of Sea Kayaker nor do I need info on the 
Greenland Rolling Competition as on the Qayaq USA site.
In both those cases, I'll be collecting the info myself in the 
next week or so.

I also don't want multiple references to the identical roll.
If the regular screw roll is documented (essentially) identically
in four books, I only need one.

What is important is to find different names for the same roll,
different rolls with the same name and sources of rolls I've never 
heard of.

I've left a few ??? in the tables.  I need this info.  For example,
we talked last summer about a roll from someone named Tom (I think)
that is in an older edition of SK magazine (1988??).  If you remember
this and can help, that info is welcome.  I think Matt knows the fellow.

All help appreciated and TIA.

Mike
