I always say high braces are a waste of energy and much harder than rolls. I always skip high braces when teaching these things. High braces are also more prone to cause injuries. I'd rather get a little wetter doing a roll than busting a shoulder trying to keep my head out of the water :)But then again I only deal with sea kayakers so rolls aren't as potentially dangerous as for white water paddlers.

The underwater views really take the mystery out of what goes on during the roll, very helpful. Thanks

I SECOND THAT COMMENT...you are right..I cannot roll and am learning braces,,high and low and will master them and my rescues before doing anything near a roll. I want my braces down so good that they are my first instinct and think that is the smart way to progress to rolling. I read a book that talks about separation of the lower and upper body and a light went off in my head regarding braces..that is the key and great tip...

I prefer the C to C roll. It protects your head from the rocks and brings you up in position to take a solid stroke.

What's the difference between c to c and sweep? *looks baffled*That guy musta been dizzy at the end of that... But, it looks so much fun! I get to have a go tomorrow again, yay!

depends on your perspective.sweep is generally considered easier, but c to c keeps your face toward the boat so you can't get bashed in the nose by a rock. I'm practicing sweep. It's better to have a roll that might maybe get you in trouble than to not have one at all. |
