During a game of kayak football I caught a touchdown pass and went  
over. I wedged the ball in my mouth and tried to roll. If you let go  
of the ball the touchdown doesnt count. Every time I started around I  
was pulled back down somehow. This happened a few times and I  
finally, begrudgingly, gave up and tapped the hull with both hands.  
It turned out a friend was trying to do the hand of God and had been  
pulling on the shoulder strap of my PFD in the opposite direction of  
my roll the whole time!
