: Oddly, though, there is some actual truth to that, too, at least in
: sea kayaking circles. I learned whitewater kayaking first, and
: learned to roll long before I hit the river. This was the
: standard, and *every* whitewater boater I met also knew how to
: roll (though many of the newer ones couldn't pull it off when
: they needed to).
: When I moved to sea kayaking, I was taken aback, and amazed even,
: at how few of them knew how to roll - and Dubside is definitely
: a rock star there!
Dubside deserves that rep too, though he doesn't act like it, nice guy :)
Helps much if you learn this stuff when you're young and flexible, which I didn't, was building boats professionally then and far to busy to actually use one.
