I finally made it to the pool this evening for roll practice (but forgot the camera). It's actually been quite a while since I've done a lot of rolling, and none with my new extra skinny Lumpy paddle.
Funny (or maybe not so funny) how your confidence takes a hit when you've not been working on skills. I'm thinking about a class I/II white-water paddle next week so thought it would be good to see if I still have it.
I forgot how much fun rolling practice is. I mostly practiced my old rolls using the GP stick. I even got some hand rolls in using a white-water hand paddle I borrowed. I need to remember to bring my Greenland throwing stick.
Next week I've promised myself to keep the GP home, and only use a Euro paddle. It's the practice I really need, and I'll be using a short one on the river.
