Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 11:10:21 EDT
Hey, I just found this video on YouTube and thought it was a good one.  I 
know that at one time I was told that it was impossible to roll a double.  
Obviously no one told these ladies!
    Also note this is another set of Washington State  kayakers!

Hmmm I never thought that...

In a different kind of boat: 
 I remember seeing Davey Hearn & John Lugbill rolling a WW C2 in a pool demo.  They first had their paddles on opposite sides and were popping the boat into the air -- then switched to the same side and rolled it...

I'm pretty sure these are the same gals who were rolling their double at
last year's Port Townsend kayak seminar. Pretty impressive.

We have a number of members of the Rocky Mountain Canoe Club that roll 
their double canoes. . . . much harder than a double kayak!! ;-) :-D

A couple of years ago at the Port Townsend Kayak Symposium I was on the
beach when a 20-something guy came up on his paddleboard. He said "hi" to me
and I said something about "pretty cool... but can you roll it?". He said,
"good question" and then dropped to a sitting position with his legs around
the board, capsized, and rolled up.

Very cool.
