I dislocated my shoulder once while skiing, I know how debilitating the pain can be. I had to ski down with it, hurt too much to walk, each step I took jarred the shoulder and I got very light headed. Skiing evened out the impacts and allowed me to get down. I can't imagine trying a paddle float reentry with one. If you do, be prepared to feel like you have an orange tucked up tight in your armpit! How does one even begin to practice that? I can see myself out on Chesapeake Bay with some paddling partners, and turn to one and say, "Yo Steve, I want to practice my paddle float reentry, could you come over and dislocate my shoulder?" : -) All kidding aside, the matrix is a good personal tool to focus your training.
