Interesting thought Kirby, but be the stroke in question a brace or a 
draw or whatever, the thing that keeps me from practicing it is the 
pumping after a wet exit. I don't mind being wet, or even climbing back 
in. But I HATE pumping. So I'm working on my roll so I can "try, try 
again."

That said, my issue with rolling is brandishing the paddle properly. So 
I start a roll session with deeper and deeper sculling braces to teach 
the muscle memory how the paddle feels when it's  working properly.
