the last line i said dry suit. i ment a tiny wet suit about 1.5mm .
re. an instant roll. i bloody near took a breath under water. it is
called cold shock and it got me.
you know ,,, i would have rolled up but my paddle was set up so it
would have to be a full roll. i was simply shocked out of my boat.
you know it got much worse when i got out of the boat and my .... well
when i got wet all over it was bad.
they had me back in the boat in likely under 30 seconds. it was very
fast, felt like forever but it was fast.
i have not failed a roll since.
