The August '97 issue is sold out, and I'm too impatient to write off for a reprint. Is this the Vertical Scull in Derek Hutchinson's "Eskimo Rolling"? Or an extended side scull? Or a chest scull? Or something completely different?
: I ran an article on sculling in Sea Kayaker a few years ago. (How to etc) if
: you send me your mailing address I'll copy it and send it.
: Sculling with the Greenland paddle is way easier than the Euro blade and I
: always demonstrate it at my Greenland paddling talks like at Newfound.
: It's the foundation of the Greenland style of paddling.
: You can start by leaning on the paddle a bit and sculling back and forth and
: learn to get lift. Eventually you'll be able to scull with you body
: floating on the water (effortlessly). So... instead of rolling up and hip
: snapping you body up to the surface, you'll be able to scull to the
: surface and wiht a few gentle sculling strokes lift yourself right up to
: your paddling position.
: It take a little while to learn (a season) but once you have it - it's
: amaizingly easy to do.
