G'Day,

Its also worth adding that having just learn't a 'non extended paddle roll'
and also managed to carry out an offside roll the opportunity exists for me
to practice both onside and offside 'non extended paddle rolls' so that both
become equally good. With the Pawlatta as the back up when I miss a few.

I know this is all pretty elementary for the rolling afficianado's but its
got me excited, a decent offside roll should improve my chances of recovery
from problems in the surf.

Alternatively, of course, I could learn how to surf properly:~) On this note
what do people suggest are the key things to remember in surf thats bigger
than 1 meter?

All the best, PeterO
