Rolling a sea kayak - Overview of the roll - sample lesson 

What an absolutely perfect video. Crisp description, apt pacing and bang-on visuals of the break-up of the steps. Thank you so much!

This video is what brought me finally to roll successfully after a year of trying Well done and many rhanks

I just started rolling in sea kayaks with advanced class. By far, the best video out there because of the shots of your video footage. Great job!

Excellent video class. The best I have ever seen. 🙏

Just started to learn how to roll. This is the first video that really made it clear how everything fits together! Many thanks for the effort and great video.

This is one of the BEST videos on the Roll I have seen!! Thank You!!

Best visual instruction available , Thanks!

Those kayaks are sick…love the dragon design!

Excellent video of rolling a sea kayak. I found that pushing the paddle higher up out of the water during the setup gave me a more bomb proof roll.

Just stumbled upon this video, really incredible stuff and very important for rolling. After the hip snap I think keeping your head down is one of the most important parts, and one of the hardest

The best video about rolling ever seen so far, thank you from italy

best video I ever saw about rolling. Thank you very much. With best regards from the Kiel Canal //MAtz

I'm a french paddler and yes i agree this a very good and comprehensive video, thank you

I have stopped kayaking for many years now, take my skills back from your channel. You are distinguished in your lessons and in professional photography, which consolidates the concepts of the lesson. I hope that you will put in your next episodes program how to choose the right boat and the necessary accessories, and the appropriate places to buy these tools online.

This was really well done. I'm saving this to review before the next skills night with my club.

Thank you! it seems a very effective tecnique, next Summer i will definitely try it!

This was a very well done video, wow!!! Thank you!!!!!

As with 90 % of rolling videos nearly all the talk is on what happens from the waist up when the hip snap is what is the most important

Easiest way get a bat or gp canoe join a club and have some pool lessons, I thought I was good but being in a pool with mates I was in Durham kayak club I lived by the sea but one of my friends in the club made the whole thing easy. Whereas trying to imitate books ( in my case) or vids is not going do much except bruised thighs trying to roll without technique.

A free tip for everybody that I received for free, early February 2022. Let’s assume you are attempting rolls, again and again. Your face emerges, but then you lose it and you’re back upside down, swimming or er…drowning. The tip i received…..when you are ready to right yourself, paddle in position, as you make the pull down…. Fix your eyes on the tip, or where the tip is if the water is murky then keep fixed on the tip of the paddle the whole time. Again…watch the very tip of the paddle through the entire sweep and pull procedure. It made my rolls 100% successful from then on. That’s with both Greenland and Euro paddle. The tip works because, if you do so, the action actually contributes to the body twist and unwinding core strength without trying to be conscious of it. Happy rolling!

謝謝分享～動作很清楚😊

Do you need any particular hip action for this? Also have you successfully employed this during an unplanned tip over?

Great footage. Would be cool to add a gopro underneath to see the activity under the water. I've got dodgy shoulders and bought a Greenland paddle to use this year, I take it the sweep would be more effective for with this?

Why are the Brittish so keen on C to C? And in the sweep roll, flippning you head far back on your way up make things so much easier. And so does a greenland paddle...

Good video friend

What happens if you get knocked by a wave and lose the paddle? How can you roll without it?

I see you have the blades aligned, I use mine un-aligned so I only move one hand to rotate the blade. Is this important when doing a roll ? (kayaking for 35 years never did a roll 😁

How heavy are the boats you're using

Interesting, but for me the instruction 'shed the tension from the blade' is too abstract, what does it actually mean in practice? And of course, as with all these videos, what would be REALLY useful would be video or diagrams from the point of view of the kayaker. Trying to absorb kinaesthetic information visually is hard, but from the 'wrong way up' almost impossible!

What happens if u lose ur paddle when u turn over

What's the trick to prevent people on Shore from calling helicopters fire trucks rescue boats and airplanes when you practice rolling.

Nice boat. Get a Greenland paddle though.
