Jim says: > Just learned to roll. I was taught the C to C. snip Congratulations, Jim! I am from that group of paddlers that feel that a roll is a crucial tool to possess. I still remember how excited I was when I nailed my first few! Since then, I have come to believe that a good roll does not belong to us, but is something the Gods lend to us when they feel so inclined. When the Gods change their minds about granting us a roll, they can, and DO, quickly take it away again. I have played "lost and found" with my roll since I first learned it, about a year and a half ago. It is my contention that any paddler who tells you they have never "lost" their roll is full of it. IMHO, your best chance of keeping your rolls lies in using it..a lot Jolie *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
