Default WW / general techniques

Hello,

it's winter, and I'm using it for technical training in the swimming
hall. I'm pretty new, only paddling since August.

What techniques are there to get down a WW river with best results,
starting from the most basic ones, and only listing those that can be
practiced in a swimming pool (i.e., no ferrying etc.)?

- Low brace (got it pat down)
- Roll (several of them, I know one of them)
- High brace (decided not to learn it, I'll rather take a swim / roll
than to risk the injury)

Anything more?

Thanks in advance,
Jakob
