I can't wait to spend some time learning to hand roll it. Maybe with some instruction sometime this summer... I am considering the trec to the "beach" in June. Soryy, not enough experience with the two of them side by side to tell you. I do know that my change in technique (lay back) over the winter makes rolling a lot easier. The first time I came up I nearly kept going to the other side.

Thanks man!

BTW, it does start nice conversations with fisherfolk... as seen below soon after dawn in Florida.
